There are several options for doing this. Here are two of them:
1. convert your text into a table with 2 columns then enter the numbers in column 1 and the descriptions in column 2. It's then possible to only column 2.
2. use automatic numbering instead of typing in the paragraph numbers. when you sort the numbers will remain in the correct order.

Automatic numbering is the easiest method. I have attached a sample of your Word document and a PDF file showing you the button to use.

1. Select all of your text by pressing and holding the CTRL key while pressing the A key. Let go of both keys. If this is done correctly all of the content in your document will be highlighted as shown in the PDF file.
2. Click on the numbering button on the formatting ribbon - see the circled button in my attachment.
3. Click at the top of the document to "de-select" the text.
4. Delete all of the manual numbers

But I dont need number ordering but alphabetic order . I need all those titles (because they are titles ) to be rearanged in alphabetic order while numbers remain in place.

The value of automatic numbering is that when you sort the titles in alphabetical order the numbering remains in place.

Anyone can really help me to solve my problem ? I have attached 6 pages document in first post .

example : this is part of my document :

18. Definiţi procesul civil
19. Definiţi acţiunea civilă
20. Dreptul la un proces echitabil īn lumina CEDO
21. Accesul liber la justiţie īn lumina CEDO (vezi subiectul 20
25. Necesitatea ca hotărārea să fie pronunţată īn public
26.Normele de procedură civilă. Normele de competenţă


So , I need it to be rearanged in alphabetic order while original numbers stay there .
