Re: Sorting

-- Or, if you have the possibility of changing the numbers from type
'text' to type 'number', they will automatically sort correctly. That
depends on where the numbers are imbedded, of course. Just a thought.

Re: Sorting

Peter,

you must have defined the field type as text rather than number. You  
will have to redefine that field as a number field and then the sort  
will be numeric instead of alphabetic.

 Eugene

Yes.

Of course it depends on what application you're using!

Have fun,

Re: Sorting

[Rob Phillips]

Assuming you're using Word, put the numbers in a table, and choose 
Table-Sort.  You can specify whether you want to sort the data as text 
or as numbers.


Excel will automatically determine what type of data you have and sort 
accordingly.

I don't have Aperture so would like to know if this option is
