I can't figure out why sorting is not working in my SSRS Report.

SELECT itemName, itemDesc, price, quantity
FROM goods
ORDER BY price desc

when i hit the run button in query designer(in VS) and also in sql server the sorting is correct.
but when i preview my report PRICE column is not sorted at all.

thank you in advance

Ok, just to make sure, put the sorting condition on the price column in your report.
