The Sort tab controls the order that documents appear in a view. You can enter a primary sort order followed by two secondary sort criteria. Choose ascending or descending to determine the sort order. 

The Organize by folders option controls whether the documents appear in a folder structure (default) or as a flat list with no folders.

To configure document sort order in a view definition:

1. On the View menu, choose Manage Views.
    
2. Add a new view or edit an existing view.
    
3. Click the Sort tab.
    
4. Click the Sort Items By list and select a document attribute by which to sort documents.
    
5. Choose Ascending or Descending order.
    
6. Continue to specify secondary sort orders (optional).
    
7. Click Apply to save your changes. If you are editing the active view, the results of the view definition are immediately visible.
    
8. Move to the next tab or click OK to save the view.
