    Sorting totals by month - it's sorting alphabetically

    I made a work around: I created another table with all dates, plus a column that shows only the first of the month (e.g., 6/20/2015 in one field, has a 6/1/2015 in the other).

But the users are accustomed to doing this in a spreadsheet with Dates across the top, and projects down the rows. I'd like to design a form...

    I should add that while I took a VBA course, I barely remember it. I would like to see solutions for people that don't know VBA. This may be somewhat limited, but works for the way I use ACCESS.

    I'm Ron, a corporate finance professional in NYC

    I was first introduced to databases in 1987 with Paradox - a nice DOS based and powerful relational database. I started using ACCESS a few years later. I was working as an economic analyst and used it to analyze the housing market, labor forces, and other data. I later used it in my work in...
