>No I guess I do not get how to browse a cursor. Also is there some format I should save this cursor statement in? Or is there somewhere in the report properties I should enter this code???

No, not in the report. Try this:

SELECT strain, quantity, location2, userid, date, notes ;
	FROM Veg ;
	ORDER BY strain ASC, date DESC ;
	INTO CURSOR strainreport
SELECT strainreport
BROWSE   && add this temporary line while working on getting the cursor right
REPORT FORM report1cutt.frx  TO PRINTER  PROMPT  PREVIEW
USE   && closes the cursor
SELECT Veg
USE   && closes the table

>And the report is displaying the data in the same order as I entered it into the the table not the date descending order but the report is filled in properly???

Do the fields have an alias like this: veg.strain
or just the plain field name: strain
