Default Need help sorting and need a real pro - this is a toughy.

I can't use Excel for this as it is simply a list which I fax daily but
would like it sorted. It still is not working at all with the instructions
given. Any other suggestions?

Perhaps someone can tell me how to sort this list:
1. joe smith 1 main st someplace ny 11300
2. mary jones 2 central ave anywhere ny 11456

and so forth. I would like to sort them in alphabetical order by first or
last name and have the rest of the information appear as well. If
necessary, I can eliminate the numbers preceding the name. I could have a
list of up to 50 to sort. I use Word 2003 and Windows XP Pro.
Thanks so much.



What is the purpose of this list? You might be better off using a
spreadsheet application rather than a WP one. Depends on what you are
using the data for...
