Default Can I change a sort order?

You would need to have the Alamo Canyon in a separate column, and probably
without the period after it, and sort on that column and then on the column
containing the balance of the information.

Hope this helps.

I am trying to sort a table according to Hike Descriptions. For example,
the
table contains the following as the first 2 sentences in the table:
Alamo Canyon. Rating D.
Alamo Canyon to the Water Tank. Rating C.

When I sort the table, the order is:
Alamo Canyon to the Water Tank. Rating C.
Alamo Canyon. Rating D.

Is there a way to assure that the sort will be as shown in the first case,
and not as in the second, which is not what I want?
