The correct sorting function to list items in alphabetical order depends on the software being used. Here are some examples:
-
Microsoft Word: To sort a one-level bulleted or numbered list alphabetically, select the list and go to Home > Sort. Set "Sort by" to "Paragraphs and Text" and choose "Ascending (A to Z)" or "Descending (Z to A)".
-
Microsoft Excel: To sort data in a range or table alphabetically, select a cell in the column you want to sort and go to the Data tab. In the Sort & Filter group, select either "A to Z" to sort ascending or "Z to A" to sort descending. You can also sort based on a custom list or add another column to sort by.
-
Other software: The correct sorting function may vary depending on the software being used. In general, look for a "Sort" or "Order" function and select "Ascending" or "A to Z" to sort alphabetically.
