I'm using a Cross Tab Report with rows with names like 'Q1', 'Q2', 'Q7', 'Q10' etc.

However, they're in alphabetical order such as:

Q1
Q10
Q2
Q7

However, I want:

Q1
Q2
Q7
Q10

Is there any way to specify the order of rows?

+2  A: 

Why not change the query to have the Q1 output as Q01?

Quick and effective.

Unfortunately this wouldn't be acceptable to the user, but thanks for the suggestion.

+2  A: 

Use a crystal formula to return the Q1, Q2, etc as only the number and as an integer. Group on this formula in the cross-tab, but use the original field as the Group name.

Not as quick as the first poster, but more versatile.

I actually find this solution quicker than modifying the original query.
