Sort summary report by Summary field?

Here is another one for you guys. I couldn't find a really appropriate forum to post it in so here it is...I have your basic summary report that has a header, sub-summary, and footer. In the sub-summary is a text field called Product and a summary field called Count that just shows a total count for each product in the subsummary for the found set. Of course the records have to be sorted by Product in order for this report to work. That's FileMaker 101.

WHat I can't figure out how to do is display the summary report not sorted by Product, but by Count. In otherwords, I want to have the Product with the largest Count at the top and the smallest count at the bottom or vice versa. I know I can, likely, achieve this by exporting the summarized data to a text file and then importing into a FileMaker file I have setup for doing this type of report, but I'd love to not have to do that.

Any suggestions???
