Thanks, Diane! I did that, but noticed it still sorts alphabetically first by report type, although they're no longer grouped. Our new conservator here had been interested in purely by date, so that he could easily see the progression of work on the object. I don't think it's a biggie, though. It is still much improved and probably makes more sense to still have the initial alpha sort, especially as the conservation history for an object grows. Really appreciate your help!
have a great weekend,
Maja

Hi Maja,
It's just a click in DBconfig. Log in to DBconfig, on the configuration page that appears, go to Conservation and click the plus - you should see GroupBySurveyType. Right click to edit, and there will be a choice of Yes or No to group by survey. If you change it to No, it should sort by date.
I was psyched when I found out you could do this as I never found the sort by type that useful for our purposes.
Diane.
