Troubleshooting
No Sort Option Specified Error
When I attempt to run a Query, I get an ‘Error 90’ message followed by ‘No Sort Option specified.’
This can happen if the Sort Option is invalid, ie. it refers to a field in the database which does not exist. Most often this is because the option was misspelled. Try this:
- Determine the Module to which this belongs. If the Query is for a report or form, that will be in the upper left hand corner. If it is for a Browse, the Module will display in the Status Bar at the bottom left of the Simple Accounting program.
- Delete the original Query.
- Go into UTILITIES|Query Mgr|Sort Options
- Scroll down to the Module (from Step #1), find the field which caused the error and hit the [Edit] button.
- Click the lookup button and scroll down to select the field.
- Press [OK].
- Now go back to the Report or Browse and re-create the Query.
