Tables have no particular order and when you bind a form or report directly
to a table you are never guaranteed that the records will be retrieved in
any particular order.  When the order matters use a query with an explicit
sort applied (forms) or apply the desired sort in the Sorting and Grouping
dialog (reports).

You can also set the sort order on the form, but that is easily changed or
disturbed by user actions.
