Although the Sort feature is often associated with data in tables, it is also available to sort text that is not contained in a table. Use the Sort feature to sort a list of items in ascending (A to Z) or descending (Z to A) order.

Word sorts a list based on the first characters of each item in the list, using the paragraph mark ( ¶ ) as the delimiter.

NOTE If you are dissatisfied with the results of a sort, use the Undo button on the Quick Access Toolbar to return a list to its original order. Sort by number if your list contains numbers. A numeric sort, however, ignores all text. If your list contains both numbers and text, a text sort will take both numbers and text into account.
