I have a list for a daily challenge app and the Name of the column is “Day 1”, “Day 2”, “Day 3”, etc. I want them to be in numbered order but right now it is in alphabetical order so it is reading "Day 1, Day 10, Day 11, Day 12…Day 19, Day 2, Day 20, Day 21…

I know this is a quick fix, probably in Options but I am not very experienced in this and need help in exactly what to do. Thank you.

Create a numeric column with just numbers that correspond to the day number. Then sort by the numeric column instead.

Or just go with the numeric column and set the formatting to add the word ‘Day’ as a unit. Then you can get rid of the original day column.

Thank you. How do you sort with Glide Tables?

You don’t sort the table itself. You sort the list or collection.
