Sure, just make a query and pick the column you want to sort by. Menu: Query > SQL Select ....
But if you want it the Excel/Access way, by directly right clicking the columnname in a browser, you will like the new MapInfo.NET ((1)not the real name (2)when it comes...). It has this little nice feature. HTH, Jakob Jakob Lanstorp Senior Consultant Geographical Information & IT COWI A/S Odensevej 95 5260 Odense S.
