pivot table - drop down filter box has 10% of items out of order

Most of my numeric items appear in the drop down filter box in order. . I
know all these are numeric and I even tried to move it down to within the
pivot table report and got same problem. In excel 2007, I cannot figure out
how to ensure the drop down is in alphabetical order. This is a productivity
killer when looking for certain items. Any ideas?

If you sort the field in the pivot table, the items in the field's
dropdown list should also be sorted.

To sort a column field, select a cell in the column area, and click the
A-Z button on the tool bar.
