How to sort data (i.e. sort by last name) in a related ?

Hello,
Is there a way to sort automatically records by "last name" in my related "contact" of my account view ?
Even manually, we do not have any arrow !
Many thanks and have a nice day.

Thanls bobb for your reply.
It works except for the first line which is not sorted by alphabetical order.
i.e:
M
A
C
G
V
Z
Does anyone have point out the same behavior ?
Thanks again.

  • How can I get the address book to sort by "Last" name (using v 31.3.0).

    After a computer crash, I had to load Thunderbird (v31.3.0) back into my machine running Windows 8.1, and I successfully imported my address book back up file into Thunderbird (v31.3.0).
    My problem is that I don't see an option to sort the address book by "Last" name, which was available with the version of Thunderbird I had before the crash.
    How can I get the address book to sort by "Last" name?

    In 'Address Book'
    Select address book
    'View' > 'Show name as' > 'Last/First'
    The you can sort by Name.
    Either click on 'Name' column header to change sort order,
    If reversed, then click on 'Name' column header again to reverse the order.
    Or
    'View' > 'Sort By' > choose 'Name' and 'Ascending'

    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the third-party developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, email the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

  • Sorting by Last Name with One Field

    In other words, how would I sort by last name when it's a single field that looks like FirstName_LastName?
    Ex:
    Alex S
    Derek A
    Bob Z
    to
    Derek A
    Alex S
    Bob Z
    I would suppose there is a way to make it read only the data after the space and sort it that way somehow?
    I have other problems but this is the biggest one I have at the moment.

    I'm dealing with a multi class program if that has any relevance.
    And I'm supposed to sort the names into a alphabetical last name format.Are you supposed to use your own sorting alogrithm or are you supposed to use Java's built in sorting algorithms and API?

  • Sorting by last name

    How do I get the artist list to sort by "last name, first name" but display as "first name last name"?
    Thanks for the help

    Use the new Sorting fields.
    If you Get Info on a track and select the Sorting tab, you can enter lastname firstname (e.g. "Cash Johnny") into the Sort Artist field, and iTunes will from then on alphabetize that track by last name (with the C's, in my example). The display name will be unaffected.
    Since iTunes doesn't know how to divide up artists into first and last names, there's no easy way to automate the process — you'll need to do it by hand. But once you've changed one track by an artist, you can control-click that song in your library and select "Apply sort fields..." from the contextual menu that pops up to copy the sorting information to all songs by that artist.
    You can do this with many other fields, too — you can, for instance, delete initial quotation marks so those songs aren't erroneously sorted to the front of the alphabet.

  • Why can't I find the option to sort by last name?

    I see posts from some people with Android 2.2 that their phone gives the option of sorting by last name or by first name.  However, following the procedure they give, I don't see "display option".  I have seen other people who say they have the same problem on other forums, but no solutions were offered other than that it might be motoblur.  Is it motoblur?  if so, can I remove motoblur so I can sort?  Or is there another workaround?  This continues to be a major annoyance for me when I want to make a call...  Any help is appreciated.

    A fix is to download an alternative dialer from the market.  I use Dialer One (free) which allows you  to sort by last name.
    It also shows time/date of all calls, vs the strange format used for recent calls (e.g. "6 hours ago") by the default dialer.
    You can keep both, switching back to the stock dialer if you need to.

  • Phonetic spelling in the alphabetical sorting of last names

    The address book incorrectly factors in the Phonetic spelling of a last name in the alphabetical sorting of last names. Any way to correct this Apple?

  • Birthday calendar on iCloud sort by last name first name like my contacts

    birthday calendar on iCloud sort by last name first name like my contacts

    Curiously, the most recently inputted entries do sort properly, as do all company entries.
    Does that mean "most recently inputted" AFTER you upgraded to Snow Leopard?
    If that is true, it would mean that something about your existing records before the upgrade, for the records that are people contacts (with first and last names) instead of business contacts, do not agree with Snow Leopard and/or Snow Leopard's version of Address Book.
    This may not be feasible, but if you exported the records with this problems and then imported them, maybe they will be re-inputted so that are properly sorted.
    If you use Time Machine, maybe you can use the +flying through space+ interface to restore one of the records with this problem to see if the restore process makes the record sort properly.

  • When I sync my contacts with Outlook, the iphone shows them sorted by first name.  I want them sorted by last name.

    I have my contacts stored in Outlook (sorted by last name).  When I sync to my Iphone, the contacts are sorted by first name.  I have checked the Settings and show and file are checked as Last, First.  What can I do to change this sort?

    On the phone, go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars select the account you want and scroll down to the settings for Contacts.  You can change display and sort order there.

  • Contacts - Sorting by last name

    I've read that Android 2.2 allows you to sort your contacts by last name, but I can't seem to find a way to do this on the Droid 2.  It seems that the feature has been disabled either by Motorola or Verizon.  Does anyone know of any plans to restore this functionality?  Sorting by last name seems so natural -- it's a mystery why anyone would consciously remove it.

    On the Nexus One it's
    Open contacts --> Menu button --> View contact names as
    I am unsure as I do not have a Droid 2 on hand, but am considering purchasing one sometime in the near future.  Of course above will vary between manufacturers since Some devices will have custom UI's built on top of Android.

  • Sort by last name

    Is there a way to sort artists by their last name?

    Hi, eduardo, welcome to Apple's user-to-user discussion forums.
    In order to sort by last name, you need to change the artist tag to "Last Name, First Name", from "Bob Dylan" to "Dylan, Bob".
    There are a two or three scripts at Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes that will reorder selected artist names. One thing you have to be careful of, however, is changing a group that was a multi-word name, otherwise you would change "Brobdingnagian Bards" to "Bards, Brobdingnagian".

  • Sort by last name in groups

    Experia Z3: Although on top level (ALL contacts) can be sorted by last name, it seems not to be possible to have the same sorting within groups, e.g. Family or Friends. Forgotten to program?

    I checked here and it's like you say, in groups the contacts are displayed with first name first. I will forward it as feedback internally.

  • 'Sort by last name' not working in Address Book

    In Address book, the 'sort' function (under preferences-General) does not work for half my contacts (all people rather than companies). This does not work for 'by first name', nor 'by last name'. This random list appears at the top of address book, followed by properly sorted entries.
    Curiously, the most recently inputted entries do sort properly, as do all company entries.
    On MobileMe, everything sorts properly
    On my iPhone address book, the same problem, except the random unsorted list now appears after the properly sorted entries (under the category #)
    Is there any reason why this is happening, and any fix for this?

  • Contacts not being sorted by last name

    Hello,
    We recently received 2 Windows HTC 8x Phones (one for me and one for my son) and I wanted to sort my contacts (people on this phone) by last name. However it is not working correctly, it seems some contacts get sorted while others do not and the problem is not just on my phone but on my sons as well. I was wondering if there is a quick fix for this or a reason why it would only sort a few contacts.
    Example of what my contacts look like now:
    Christian Ortega
    Clark, Megan
    Coats, Will
    Corbyn Gilbert
    Now, these all show up under 'C' but the last names are Ortega, Clark, Coats, and Gilbert so two of those should obviously not be under 'C'.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

    Well we had checked those and they all seem to be right. However, all contacts were imported from our old phones (which were not smart phones) and we used the backup Assistant. I can't seem to isolate the difference between the ones that work and the ones that do not work some are linked to facebook/hotmail and some aren't and that doesn't seem to have anything to do with the problem since their information is correct on those and they are on separate lines.
