How Do I:
Sort records?

To Sort Records

1. Go to Record, and select "Sort Records".

2. At the dialog box, click on the down triangle to show a list of field names and choose the field to sort on by clicking it.  (NOTE: Another way to choose the field name is to click in the box under "Sort by" and use the arrow keys to move through the list.  Press enter to choose a field name.)

Choose Ascending (A to Z or 1 to 9) or Descending (Z to A or 9 to 1) and click on OK. In most cases the first sort by box is the only one you will use.
