4 Horizontal Sort Priorities

Click on Horizontal sorts radio button to show priority of the Horizontal sorts.

1 Change the Horizontal sort priority by selecting either [Year] or [Quarter] and then using the arrow buttons. 2 Click on Apply to confirm the change or click on OK to confirm and exit the dialog box.

Results show the sort priorities have now changed to: Vertical sorts = [City] and then [State] ([City] column is sorted first, i.e. Austin to Washington) Horizontal sorts = [Quarter] and then [Year] (descending [Quarter] followed by [Year] ascending) NOTE Changing the priority of the sorts does not affect the order of each sort, i.e. if a sort is descending and has a priority of 2, then moving it to priority 1 will cause it to be applied first but still in descending order.
