I'm special.
Mar. 3rd, 2008 03:57 pmI spend so much time working in various word-processing programs, I forget that it's specialized knowledge. I want all of my friends to be special too.
To easily alphabetize a list in Microsoft® Word:
1) Create a list with one item or name on each line.
2) Using the mouse, highlight the entire list.
3) In the main menus, click Table to show the menu options.
4) Scroll down and click Sort.
5) The Sort Text dialog box appears:
6) Make sure the “Sort by” field is Paragraphs, the “Type” is Text and order is Ascending.
7) Click OK.
8) The list should automatically re-sort itself into alphabetical order from A to Z.
From here, you should be able to highlight your list, Copy (Ctrl+C), and paste (Ctrl+V) your list into a document.
Tell your friends. If you'd like a Word document with helpful examples and screenshots, send me your email address. Have your friends tell their friends. Eventually someone will tell my coworkers in India so I don't have to be mad at them anymore. They are not listening to me.
