Thanks Jeff,
 
After a little more investigation it turns out that the problem only
exists when I run the query through a MS Access database attached to
MySQL via ODBC. If I run the query in MySQLCC or MySQL-Front it runs
just fine.
 
Any ideas for a work around?

This should work if you assign it an alias...it does for me on
4.018(not
exact query)

Select Product, Sum(Qty) AS MYSUM
>From Inventory
Group By Product
Order By MYSUM DESC;
