Figure 40 – The Sort Table Dialogue Box
3. From the Sort by pop-up menu, select which column’s values you want to sort.
4. From the Order pop-up menu, select whether to sort the column alphabetically or
numerically, then select whether to sort it in ascending order (A to Z, lower numbers to
higher numbers) or descending order.
Tip: When the contents of a column are numbers, select Numerically. An alphabetic sort
applied to a list of one- and two-digit numbers results in the numbers being sorted as if
they were words (resulting in ordering such as 1, 10, 2, 20, 3, 30) rather than being
sorted as numbers (resulting in ordering such as 1, 2, 3, 10, 20, 30).
5. From the Sort by pop-up menu, select which column’s values you want to sort.
6. From the Order pop-up menu, select whether to sort the column alphabetically or
numerically, then select whether to sort it in ascending order (A to Z, lower numbers to
higher numbers) or descending order.
7. From the Then by pop-up menu, select a secondary column to sort on a different
column.
8. From the Order pop-up menu, select whether to sort the secondary sort column
alphabetically or numerically, and whether to sort it in ascending order (A to Z, lower
numbers to higher numbers) or descending order.
9. In the Options section, select any of the following additional options:
a. Sort includes first row specifies that the first row of the table is included in the
sort. If the table has a header row, the header is the first row of the table.
b. Sort header rows specifies to sort header rows using the same criteria as the
body rows.
c. Sort footer rows specifies to sort table footer rows using the same criteria as
the body rows.
d. Leave row colors in original positions specifies that any table row colours
should remain associated with the same content after the sort.
For example, if your table rows are formatted with two alternating colours,
leave this option unselected to ensure that the sorted table still has alternating-
coloured rows. If the row colour is specific to the content of each row, then
select this option to ensure that colour remains associated with the sorted rows.
10. Click OK. Contribute reorders the table.
