Summary:

Page 333 of the “Reference to Microsoft Word” manual incorrectly states the following:

The Sort command sorts selected paragraphs, columns, or lines ending with the end-of-line mark.

This statement is only partially correct. The Sort command sorts selected paragraphs or columns, but will sort only selected lines if those lines end with a regular return, not an end-of-line mark (SHIFT+RETURN).
