Is it possible to reorder a list alphabetically?

Maybe there is a third party app, or possibly a way to re-order a list alphabetically in InDesign?

Hi @Ken Nielsen:

Did you try the Sort Paragaphs script in the Scripts panel? That should take care of it for you.

The script that Barb recommends worls fine on short lists. If your list is long it will take a long time to finish. You can then try this (free) script: https://www.indiscripts.com/post/2020/08/smartsort-1-05-new-design-new-options
