How do I cronologically sort a column with names & years.

office in Word under the Table columns? It seem sorting can only be done by alphabetically not numerically. Like to know how to cronologically sort the following Presidents in Word.

Clinton (1993-2001) John Adams (1797-1801) George Washington (1789-1797) James Madison (1809-1817) James Monroe (1817-1825) John Quincy Adams (1825-1829) Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) William Henry Harrison (1841) John Tyler (1841-1845) James Polk (1845-1849) Zachary Taylor (1849-1850) Millard Fillmore (1850-1853) Martin Van Buren (1837-1841) Franklin Pierce (1853-1857) James Buchanan (1857-1861) Abraham Lincoln (1861-1865) James A.

How do I cronologically sort a column with names & years.
Use Find & Replace to convert " (" and "-" to tabs, then convert text to
table (which will put the start date into its own column), sort on that column, then reverse the process. Or just do it manually, with select and drag. The list isn't all that long anyway.

The years should be in it's own seperate column, then when you click on
Table, Sort, you can change it from text to date and tell it to sort the Date column by date. But the dates need to be in their own column.
