alphabetising pages - ?

[oistrakhan]

Is there any way you can alphabetise pages in a section? I have over 100
pages in a section and they are getting out of hand! I have to scroll
through reams of them to find the one I want. I know I can do it manually,
which would take hours and be out of date by tomorrow as well.

There's a PowerToy which does the job:
Sort Pages

For sorting sections in a notebook:

What comes very handy too if one has many pages in a section:

Apart from that: With over 100 pages, it might be high time to split the
section.
And using section groups helps a lot too for keeping things organized.

Thanks to everyone who replied. I installed the power toy and it works
perfectly.

That's a great tool, but it has one flaw: If you have pages that have
sub-pages, the link is broken and the sub-pages need to be put back in
their place after the sort. Or has that been fixed?

Must have been fixed as my sub-pages survived in exactly the same place and,
equally good, they themselves were alphabetised. It is a great little tool
and without this discussion group I'd have had no idea it existed.

I can confirm this.
Works as it should.

Great, guys. Thanks! I'll have to check and make sure I have the
latest version installed.
