Sorting columns in the grid

Note: You need to hold down the Alt key while sorting on a column. (If you do not hold down the Alt key, you simply select columns.)

  • To sort on a single column in ascending order, hold down the Alt key while you click the header of an unsorted column.

  • To sort in descending order, hold down the Alt key while you click the header again.

  • To undo sorting on a column, hold down the Alt key while you click the header one more time.

  • To sort on multiple columns:

    1. Sort the first column in the range of columns.

    2. Press the Alt and Shift keys while you click the header of the next column in the sort range.

    3. Add more columns to the range in the same manner.

    Notes:  

    • You reverse the sort order by holding down the Alt and Shift keys while you click the header a second time.
    • To remove a column from the sort group, hold down the Alt and Shift keys while you click the header a third time.
