I have a detail form that shows records that include a date.  I have set that detail form to sort by date, but it is in ASCENDING order and I want the date to be sorted DESCENDING.

What is the best way to achieve this in Jam.py V7?

Thanks for your reply Dean,

That looks exactly like what I need.  Now to figure out how it was done!  

I don't seem to be able to access builder.html on https://jampy.pythonanywhere.com/ , is there somewhere I can download and install that app so I can explore what's going on "under the hood"?

Answering my own question: RTFM!

Click the Desc column to set descending/ascending sorting order for the field.

I have no idea why I never saw that "desc" column before :-(
