And this that told me to sort it in a different program and then import it into Frame. Well, I tried that but my table in excel is 2000 lines and Frame seemed to choke on it when trying to import it!!

Does anyone have any other suggestions???

Sort Table utility returns inconsistent results (FrameMaker 5.5.6 and 6.0)
Issue

The Sort Table utility in Adobe FrameMaker 5.5.6 and 6.0 returns inconsistent results.

Solutions

Do one of the following:

Solution 1: Use the latest version of FrameMaker.

Use FrameMaker 6.0 if

-- you are running Mac OS or UNIX.

-- you are running Windows and are sorting numerical data only.

For upgrade information, visit the Adobe website at <http://store.adobe.com/store/products/master.jhtml?id=catFrameMaker> .

Solution 2: Export the table to an applicatoin that can sort tables.

Export the table to an application that can sort tables. Sort the table and then reimport it into the FrameMaker document.

Background information

The Sort Table utility in FrameMaker 5.5.6 sorts only partial data, so it returns inconsistent results. This issue is corrected in FrameMaker 6.0 for Mac OS and UNIX and partly in FrameMaker 6.0 for Windows. FrameMaker 6.0 for Windows correctly sorts data that has numbers only.
