Automatically Sort Data - Microsoft 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. All you need to do is use Word's Sort feature.

To use Word's Sort feature:

1.     Start by highlighting the data you would like to sort.
2.     Click the Sort button in the Paragraph section of the Home ribbon.
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.  Word automatically sorts your data.
