MS Works 8 Word Processor - Put a list into alphabetical order?!?
-
I have Works 8 on Vista. I have a document which is a list of over 300 items in a 2 column format transferred from Word. It appears there is no "sort" option to put these into alphabetical order in Works as there used to be in Word. Can anyone help me to do this? Thanks in advance as always!

Answer:
Well unbelievably, even with the version 9 Works is still so basic that even if you put the words into a table there doesnt seem to be any way of sorting. The only way I can see of doing it is to open the spreadsheet type in the words in the various cells, highlight, then go up to tools, sort and then copy and paste back into Works wordprocessor. However, unlike Word where you could then get rid of the borders, here it comes in with borders which you can't get rid of, but at least its in order.

Have you tried right clicking an empty space to see if that brings the option up. I works on lists like "my favourites".

I've never used Works, but perhaps you can copy the two columns of data, open the spreadsheet (assuming it has one), paste, then sort in the spreadsheet, copy, then paste back in the word processor.
