Change the width of a column: Place your pointer at the right end of the column heading. When the pointer becomes a double-headed arrow, drag it to move the split line.

Filtering Columns

Note: Quick Search must be disabled to do this.

To filter a column, right-click its heading and click Filter Values.
In the Column Filter:
- Select check boxes for the values you want to see.

- Select or clear the Select All check box to select all or none; you can then select or clear individual check boxes.
Click OK.

Clearing Filters

To clear all filters, right-click any column heading and select Clear All Filters.

Sort columns, so that you can see the data in the sequence you need to work with. To sort a column:

In ascending order, either click the column heading or right-click and click Sort Ascending.
In descending order, either click the column heading again or right-click and click Sort Descending.
To sort using multiple columns, click the heading of the primary sort column, then hold down Shift and click the heading of the secondary sort column.
