Access Tables

[Guest]

Access should be able to alphabetizethe field names in tables and queries.
An example would be if the table has many fields and they are not entered in
alphabetical order you have to side scroll to find your field in datasheet
view.

Mat,

That function is probably helpful to very few people, but not much use for
many. That's what query/view is for.

A table is just a blob of data organized in rows (i.e. records) and columns
(i.e. fields). Rows are not in any particular order, and columns are not in
any particular order. Use indexing and sorting to control the order of rows
(i.e. records). Use query/view to control the order of columns (i.e.
fields). This concept is universal throughout all relational databases.
