Yes. To sort by date, you should have the date as the first item on
the topic name. For example, if you are in USA, your topic
names would be something like:
3/7/2003 Some topic
2/1/2003 Some topic 1
2/2/2003 Some topic 2
The date format should be same as set up in your Windows
control panel. Once you have date as the first item
in topic names, do this:
- Click on Edit–Sort
- Select Sort On A Date.
- A dialog appears showing topics in that sequence. If you
think the sorting is correct, click on “Apply and Close.”
However, if you put the date as yyyy/mm/dd then you can even sort alphabetically and get away with it.
Another feature: You can automatically prefix date for the new
topic names by clicking on Tools–File Options for a document. Please
select the appropriate date prefix on the New Topics page of the Options dialog.
