SUMMARY

When sorting in ascending order (A-Z), if you choose to sort a field that contains mixed types of data (such as numbers and text), Microsoft Works will sort text first before numbers.

When sorting in descending order (Z-A), Microsoft Works will sort numbers before text.

Works for Windows will always place blank fields at the bottom of your sort, regardless of whether you choose ascending or descending.
