Next we need to tell Word what we are sorting. Sorting by paragraph is the default option. Even though we only have one word per line, Word still considers each line to be its own paragraph because we pressed the enter key to get to the next line. First, you need to indicate that you want to sort the text you’ve selected by paragraph. On the Sort Text window, you’ll notice that there a number of options. Click on the Sort button and Word will open the Sort Text window. Look for a button with the letters A and Z on it and an arrow pointing down. Then, click on the Home tab on the Ribbon and locate the section titled Paragraph.
