You can quick sort a column in a view to reorder the records in either ascending or descending order based on the values in the selected column.
When you quick sort a column, you create a temporary index for the view, based on the selected column, without going through the process of creating an index in the Index dialog box.
Note
Quick sorting works with a maximum field length of 247 characters. If a field is longer than 247 characters, the Quick Sort menu options are disabled.
Steps
- Right-click the header of the column you want to use for sorting.
- Select Quick Sort Ascending or Quick Sort Descending to sort the column in either ascending or descending order.
- If you want to remove the quick sort, right-click the column
and select Quick Sort Off.
The quick sort is automatically removed when you close the table.
