Word document Sorting Data Alphabetically

You must be similar to myself when on occasions you have typed a long list and you want it to be sorted Alphabetically and you find yourself cutting and pasting like mad. Well there is an easier way, and it is right there in word, as usual nobody tells you about it, except Lindburgh that is.

To commence just type away normally and create all the list, that done Note: Do not type it double spaced by pressing the Enter button twice. If you do the outcome will be a nightmare. Set the Paragraph for double spacing if that is what you want.

Now Highlight the whole list Go to :- This will open the Sort Text window.

The default is set to Sort by Paragraphs, type of Text, Ascending. This creates a list alphabetical A to Z. (Descending will reverse the list from Z to A). Note:- At the bottom of the window under My list has, there is an option which allows you to select a Header which is then not included in the sorting.

That’s it. Click OK.
