What is the "Grouping/Sorting dialog" and where can it be found?

Also ... remove the sorting from the query, because Access still (wastefully) does the sort :-)

I have a report named "Chart 1 - Events" that I am trying to have the Date field then the Time field sort in ascending order automatically when the report is opened.

The query works fine, however the report does not sort.

How to sort in ascending order first the date field then the time field on a report?
