   Lookup Table fine when I open it, but no

   Howdy,   
      
   I am running P9.   
      
   I have a lookup table that appears just fine when I view it using File | Open   
   | Table. That is, it displays with the sort order I need.   
      
   But then, if I open a form that has a Table Frame, and I touch CNTL-SPACE, the   
   table lookup view opens, but sorts in a different order from what the lookup   
   table itself uses.   
      
   I had understood that the CNTL-SPACE view would display using the underlying   
   structure of the lookup table itself, but that seems not to be the case.   
      
   Why would the lookup table display in two different ways depending on the   
   method I use to display it? And, how can I get the CNTL-SPACE version to   
   display as does the table itself?   
      
   Many thanks,   
      
   A.C.
