A custom sorting assignment.

D

David Farber

A client would like her printed contact list to appear as follows:

First Name
Position
Company
Address
City State Zip
Telephone #
Fax #
Email address
Comments

The next record would follow underneath the previous record. The page layout
would be two columns and the bottom of the first column would snake over to the
top of the second column. It's ok if a record has a column break.

Some of the records are already in a text format but they are arranged
horizontally as follows:

First name, Last Name, Position, Company, etc...

It's fairly easy to convert the original text listing into a table with each
row being a record. Then I used the sort command on the company and last name
columns.
But to then flip it back into a vertical list seems a bit tricky. How would one
go about converting this horizontal type listing into a vertical list sorted
first by company and second, by last name?

Thanks for your reply.
