Hi，LargeAllen

Do you mean that you want to sort the list by last names? If yes, may be you can try to set options in “Sort” feature:

1. select all names-->click “Home”-->click “Sort” in “Paragraph” group, it will open the “Sort Text” dialog box.
2. click “Options” button to open the “Sort Options” dialog box
3. select “Other” under “Separate fields at”, and press key “Blank” once in the text box beside it.
4. on “Sort Text” dialog box, Choose “Word 2” for “Sort by”--> choose “Text” for “Type”--> choose a sorting order, click ok

Or as above reply ,you have to convert text to table, then sort them.
