Default Sorting pages alphabetically

Yes I know, it's complicated. I've sort of solved the problem by a
compromise of putting all the data into one row per page and 2 columns with
the 2nd column being the data for sorting.
It's not ideal having all my data in one cell/per page, but as I said a
compromise.

The question for fields was is there a way of inserting a field in a
page/table and sorting on the filed entry?

Is this possible, if so how??


It _may_ be possible, but unless you can describe the document in much more
detail there's no way to know what will or won't work.

- Is there anything else in the document besides the tables?
- How are the pages separated from each other?
- The description "either by a cell within each table or an added field or
2" is much too vague. Is the cell always in the same position within the
table? If not, how would it be recognized? What do you mean by "an added
field or 2"? Where would these be, and what would be in them?
