Automatically Sort Data in Word 2007
When you're creating a list in Microsoft Word, you don't need to worry about putting it in alphabetical order. You can put it in alphabetical order after you complete the list — without any time-consuming cutting and pasting. It also works with numbers and dates. All you need to do is use Word's Sort feature.
- 1. Start by highlighting the data you would like to sort.
- 2. On the Home tab, in the Paragraph group, click Sort.
- 3. Use the dropdown box to select the type of data you selected. You can choose from text, date, or number.
- 4. Choose where you would like to put the data in ascending or descending order.
- 5. Click OK.
