Note: Columns whose names begin with a tilde (~), such as ~Bias, are not applicable to the analysis that you ran and do not appear in the table, even if you place checks next to their names.

Sort by Column

Sorts the columns in descending or ascending order by the selected column. You can also select Numerical Order to sort a sorted string column numerically. After you do that, the Numerical Order option is available when you right-click the column. For more information about the sorting rules used by the Numerical Order option, see Numerical Order.
