The next wizard page allows you to optionally sort your data by one, two, three or four fields. Simply use the pull-down menus to choose the field(s) you wish to utilize. The "A->Z" button indicates that you wish to sort that field in ascending order. If you'd like to sort in descending order, simply click it to convert it into a "Z->A" button. We'd like to sort by the employee's last name and then use the first name as a tie-breaker if we have more than one employee with the same last name. Select these options as shown in the illustration below and click the Next button to continue.
