how to sort alphabetically in word

To sort text alphabetically in Microsoft Word, follow these steps:

1. Select the text or paragraphs you want to sort.
2. Go to the Home tab on the ribbon.
3. Click the Sort button in the Paragraph group (usually labeled with "A to Z" icon).
4. In the Sort Text dialog box, set "Sort by" to Paragraphs and "Type" to Text.
5. Choose either Ascending (A to Z) or Descending (Z to A).
6. Click OK.

This will arrange the selected text in alphabetical order. This process works for lists, paragraphs, and table contents with some additional options for sorting tables by specific columns.
