I need help in sorting a text file
I am a bad speller. So I have a small note pad that I have been writing hard to spell words in as I get the right spelling on each word. As time goes on and I look up a word in the note pad my spelling is getting better. The note pad is a hodgepodge of words, no order of any kind to them, it is sometimes hard to find a word that I know is in there in that mess. The note pad is about 3/4th full now. So I started at page 1 typing the words into a rtf file using Wordpad. The file has 2 columns, see the attached screen capture, when I am done typing all the words in. I want to sort the 2 columns as such. The left column starts at the top with the 1st letter of the 1st word (A) then going down the left column in alphabetical order. About half way the sorting takes up at the top of right column in alphabetical order to (Z). So that way I can use the file search to find the word. I don't know if this setup is possible. If not does anyone have any ideas?
If this makes me look like a stupid clod, so be it.
