How to Sort Cases in a Case Table

Briefly

Select the attribute you want to sort by, then choose Sort Ascending or Sort Descending from the Data menu.

Sorting is important for organizing data, and it affects some graphs (such as the Line Scatter Plot).

1. First, click on the name of the attribute you want to sort by at the top of a case table column. The column should highlight.

2. Then choose Sort Ascending or Sort Descending from the Data menu. The cases will rearrange themselves according to your criterion. (You may also find the Sort menu items in the contextual menu for the case table.)
