Views Sort - Will not sort using views

Using views to sort a product page by node ID. Cleared cache_views in the database and also under views > tools.

The outcome would be to sort by product node from 100 to 1. From greatest to smallest ID number.

The site is setup using a catalog in a grid. The 2nd level when selecting a catalog item is the need sort node.

Is there the possibility that this node can not be sorted?

Views will not sort for some reason and all products in the edit mode have a list position of zero.

Site is:

Using Uber 1075 and Drupal 5.7.

Not sure what the next step should be.

Thanks

Export the view, paste it to a text file, and post it here. There's probably something a little misconfigured in it somewhere else.

Thanks for taking a look at this. It is most appreciated. Seems that it should work, but it just will not sort. Tried a variety of selections and all no go. Could always upgrade to the latest bazaar if all else fails.

Taken from products > actions> export.

I imported your view, and it sorted the products like it should. I decided to change the URL and the Views key so it wouldn't conflict with any views I already had. That might be your problem. Are you sure that you're looking at the View you think you are? I know Views can override each other when they have the same URL, but I'm not sure what happens when you have more than a couple vying for position.

Here is a screen shot of the admin build views page. It would appear there are no other views in conflict as this is only one being used for the product class in existing views. Is that the way you see it? Or am I not seeing this correctly?

Or do you think that the default product views being overridden could be an issue?

It is good to know that it is working on your end. This is a good plus for sure.

As a side note, this is the same site that can not use USPS shipping as the cart would state "invalid option selected. Recalculate shipping quotes to continue". Seems to be a non related and different issue.

Thanks again and send any suggestions along. They are always appreciated.
