Remove default sorting in crystal reports

I have a dataset I have created and sorted, I then bind it to a Crystal Report:

Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("Driverperformance", con.connect)
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.Parameters.Add("@Ecode", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50, ParameterDirection.Input).Value = Ecode
cmd.Parameters.Add("@startdate", SqlDbType.DateTime, 50, ParameterDirection.Input).Value= fromd
 cmd.Parameters.Add("@enddate", SqlDbType.DateTime, 50, ParameterDirection.Input).Value= endd
 da.SelectCommand = cmd
 da.Fill(ds)
 Dim rpt As New Driverperformanc
  rpt.SetDataSource(ds.Tables(0))
crptdriverprfrmnc.ReportSource = rpt  

While executing this store procedure am getting out put sorted by date..i mean like this:

Ecode    Date       cntEcount    cntDelcod
E003    2013-05-05   4            3
E003    2013-05-27   0            4
E003    2013-06-01   1            2

but the crystal reports losing my sorting. In crystal report sorting by cntEcount.i getting crystal report like this:

Ecode    Date       cntEcount    cntDelcod
E003    2013-05-27   0            4
E003    2013-06-01   1            2
E003    2013-05-05   4            3

So I try to add date field to Record Sort Expert..but still am getting report sorted by cntEcount.

I am working on a windows application..so where do I have to make a change to allow sorting by date?

Image from other question:

my " Record Sort Expert" is like this:enter image description here

• Right click on group and go to "Group Expert" → • Under "Group by" find "Options" button → • In the "Common" tab there, change to "In original order."

As you have groups on CntEcode and Ename Crystal will always sort by these fields first, sadly there is no easy way around this.

If you can describe what you are using the groups for there may be a work around that doesn't use groups.
