It is really better to do the manipulation in the data source.

Is this a mail merge application or is the data being "merged" into the
document by some other method?

I am trying to help a co-worker with a Word Table question.
She is merging information from a db into a .docx (she uses 2003 form but
converter has been installed) After the information has been merged into
the
table, users have to sort the table on column 1. She wants this to be as
simple as possible for users - wants to sort on column automatically so
the
users don't have to sort after merge.
Any way to do this without any extra steps for users?

Thanks for the help
