Sorting

Therefore you should plan in advance how you want this register to be built so that it is easy for you to select the required text from the list.

TIP! To order text files that are numbered they must be numbered in the following way: 01, 02, 03 etc. If not the numbers will appear in the following order in the list: 1, 10, 2, 20 etc.
