Hello, cdkcpa.


In Numbers app you can sort the spreadsheet table by selecting the column you wish to sort by - name, for example - then use the Sort function found in the Organize sidebar to the right. You may need to apply a rule to the process but that's very easy to do.


Please take a look at this page in the Numbers User Guide –
