Filtering and Sorting Tabular Content
Filtering and Sorting Tabular Content
For tables with extensive data, you can view all of the information in a table cell by hovering your mouse
cursor over the cell. These topics explain how to sort and filter tabular information.
Sorting Tables
Sorting a table lets you arrange existing data in various ways, while filtering a table only displays the
information that matches the filter.
To sort a table using the Sort Table Values option:
Step 1 In the table toolbar, click Sort Table Values. The Sort dialog box is displayed.
