I have 150 pages in Word that I would like to sort based on client LAST NAME,
FIRST NAME. Each page contains the client name and page of text specifcally
about the client which will need to be kept with the name during the alpha
sort. How would I put in a field for LAST NAME, FIRST NAME and have WORD put
each page in order based on alpha order of the client name? The page of text
notes needs to be intact during this sort. I am not sure how to capture the
text on each page so that it includes the client's name where I can later
sort or how to enter a field for client LAST NAME so the I can perform the
sort in Ascending order. Any ideas? Please reply to:

If a heading style is applied to the client's name, you can sort in Outline
view. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/UsingOLView.htm
