My report is working with one exception.  I have set up a parameter to sort by choosing either 1 of 2, but since I have 3 group headers it sorts first by group then by parameter.

Create an "outside" group that is based on the parameter.  Make this Group 1.  Suppress the GH1 and GF1 sections.  This will sort the data by the parameter first and then by the rest of your grouping selections.
