[SOLVED] How to sort in reverse sequence on report

In mainframe FOCUS, how do you print a report in reverse sequence? For example, I have data reocrds that have a Year field and I want to be able to print the records so the newest year comes first, such as 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005. A regular BY statement gives me the opposite, which I don't want: 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008.

Thank you in advance for all replies.

In any FOCUS

BY HIGHEST YEAR

on the sort, never used it with ACROSS, so would have to try it.
