Case sensitive<br />

If you check this option, sort terms that begin with lowercase letters will be placed<br />

after terms beginning with uppercase letters. Otherwise, all sort terms that begin<br />

with the same letter will be grouped together, regardless of the cases of the first<br />

letters.<br />

Include cell formats<br />

Determines if cells should be sorted including their formatting.<br />

Off: Only the cell contents are sorted; the original formatting of the table is retained.<br />

On: Cells that are moved to another place due to the sorting take their formatting<br />

(shading, margins, orientation, rotation) with them.<br />

Sorting text<br />

You can sort not only the contents of a table, as described in the previous section,<br />

but also paragraphs of normal text paragraphs. To do this, you use the Edit > Sort<br />

command.<br />

Proceed as follows:<br />

1. Select the paragraphs of text to be sorted.<br />

2. Invoke the Edit > Sort command.<br />

3. Select either an ascending or descending sort order.<br />

4. Confirm with OK.<br />

The paragraphs are now sorted in accordance with your settings.<br />

The dialog box for the sort command allows you to set basic criteria and provides<br />

some additional options that can be set as needed. The options include:<br />

Sort by:<br />

Normally, all you need to specify here is the sort order: Ascending (A..Z) or<br />

Descending (Z..A).<br />
