I have a wild idea: in you RowSource use:
SELECT Desc, RecordID FROM Inventory ORDER BY Desc INTO CURSOR Temp1

(e.g. Desc should be the first).

Also you should know, that you can not use Desc as a field name. It should be Descr at least to not confuse with DESCENDING word in FoxPro. It may be your other problem too...
