How to Sort in Word?
The following steps will let you learn how to sort in Word in a table.
- Open an MS Word file.
- Complete the second column with the test scores for each unit. Indicate the following values as 7; 8; 6; 10; 11; 8; 12; 8; 9; 9; 7; 8; 8; 7; 7; 8; 10; 7; 11; 9; 7; 5; 5; 12.
- Click the Layout tab of the Table Tools.
- Place your cursor in a cell in the Topics column, click the Sort button in the Data group.
- The system proposes to sort in Ascending order. It displays the list and choose Note and change the option to Descending order. Thus, the subjects will be ordered from better assimilated to decline assimilated. Click OK.
- Repeat the steps, but this time by ordering the Ascending option, as it was at first.
Observe the ordering of the topics. Now the logical thing would be from least to highest, but when interpreting the contents of the cells as text, first locate the titles starting with least and then onwards. - Reopen the window management and look at the pop type whose value is text. Change it by Numeric and click OK.
- Now Word interprets this as a numbering and correctly sorts the topics. Note that whenever changes are made, the consistency of the rows is maintained, and the rest of the columns are also reordered.
- Close the document saving changes.
