= SUMMARY =

The names of months are sorted as numerical entries, rather than text (alphabetical) entries in the Works Spreadsheet or Database.

Names of months are right-aligned in fields and cells and appear last when the field is sorted in ascending sequence (or first in a descending sort).

To sort a month entry alphabetically, enter the month name as text by preceding the name with a quotation mark (&quot;). Then, Works will recognize the cell or field as a text string and will sort it as an alphanumeric entry.
