Default Sort from top to bottom in a multi-column table

Dugie,
You could put your list in text columns which flow frow top to bottom. Then
sort the paragraphs accordingly. You can sort paragraphs via Table - sort -
sort by paragraph.

Hi,

Is it possible to alphabetically sort text in a Word table, from top to
bottom, and continue the sort to the adjacent columns? I don't want a right
to left (across rows) sort.

Like this:
apple limes
bacon melons
butter oranges
herring steak

Not this:
apple bacon
butter herring
limes melons
oranges steak

Thank you!

Dugie
