Update Word Document Table Merge Row Order

asked on April 7

Hopefully an easy question for someone:

I have a form that has a table. When submitted, the table information is stored in a lookup table and then added in a Word doc with a Table Field Merge in an "Update Word Document" activity. The information is being passed along and inserted into the table in the Word doc, however the rows are being added to the Word doc in the opposite order to what is entered in the Form and what I see in variables/token/lookup table; The order that shows in the Form is row 1, row 2, row 3, etc but what ends up in the Word doc is row 3, row2, then row 1 at the bottom of the table.

I don't know if this is something with how Laserfiche is passing the information into Word or if Word usually adds table rows above existing rows, but has anyone else come across this behavior and/or have a suggestion or solution?

Thank you in advance for the assistance!

How is your query rule set up? At the bottom there should be an "Order By" section. I would start there.

If that's not the issue, let me know and I can try to help troubleshoot. :)
