In Word documents and Excel spreadsheets, you can sort words, a list, or entire paragraphs alphabetically. This is done very simply, and you do not need in-depth knowledge of a computer or office programs.
Instructions
Step 1
To sort alphabetically in a Word document, select the desired piece of text with the mouse, select the "Home" tab in the menu, and then click the "Sort" button (looks like the letters "A" and "Z" with an arrow next to it). In the dialog box that opens, you can select the sort order: ascending or descending. Click OK to complete the conversion.
Step 2
In Excel spreadsheets, sort alphabetically as follows. Select the list to be sorted, then right-click on the selected cells and choose Sort. You will be offered several options to choose from: "Sort from A to Z", "Sort from Z to A", etc. Click on the option you want and you will immediately see the result.
