Vlad: Works on one column tables just fine.

I'm always slow in responding.

Wish all software help desks responded as rapidly as you do.

It does not sort the same for me.


Column #1 is sorted as decimal numbers, while #2 is sorted as strings, as AllMyNotes considers numbers with preceding dots as strings.

I can understand your point, that .1 is also a number, but what prevents you from entering numbers smaller than 1 with zero in the beginning?

Re: Sorting tables
Hi Vlad,

There might be problem sorting decimals numbers.

I think Column 1 and Column 2 should sort the same.

It does not sort the same for me.

Re: Sorting tables
Sure, we have a pretty advanced table sorting feature.



You can sort by any column, and even limit range of rows for sorting.



For example, if you want to sort all rows by single column:

1. Do double-click on a most-top column cell, as result, whole table column will be highlighted.

2. Right-click on a selection, a pop-up menu will appear.

3. Select menu item Sort, and in appeared sub-menu, you can pick sorting method - Ascending or Descending.



To sort limited rows range do the same as above, but instead of step #1 do select only limited amount of rows, not whole table high range of cells.





By the way, we have implemented also so-called "natural reading" text sorting feature, which treats numbers (even with decimal point) by their numerical value 8-)

Vlad: I have created a table in an AMN document. Is it possible to sort the table contents?



Thanks
