NameSort: Sorts Names Alphabetically
NameSort alphabetizes long lists of names in ascending order based on
last names. This utility was designed for people who write memos with
long TO: and CC: lists but who hate to alphabetize names manually.
NameSort is one of the few Visual Basic™/Windows™ applications
that have no visual representation.
To use NameSort from a document, highlight the text you want sorted
and copy it to the Clipboard. The names must appear in the following
format:
   Steve Podradchik, Bill Gates, Paul Allen
Multiple lines with random carriage returns are OK.
Double-click NameSort. When the pointer icon returns, the sorted text
will be back in the Clipboard, in the form:
   Paul Allen, Bill Gates, Steve Podradchik
Now you are ready to paste back over the original text.
NameSort was built with Visual Basic version 3.0.
