How to alphabetize in a table?

[Mickey in NYC]

I have a file (13 pgs.) set up for address labels (#5160). Would like to be
able to alphabetize them by last name.

This can't be done. Word can sort on only one column at a time. You can
convert the labels to a data source, sort it, then remerge the labels. See
