Hi,

I'm wondering if anybody knows why my Greek writing with accents f.eks. in Excel or a table i Word doesn't sort correctly alphabetically.

Whithout the accents sorting is not a problem.

I'm using Tavultesoft Keyman 6.2 with Greek (polytonic precomposed) Unicode Keyboard and the Galatia SIL font.


Regards,
Sigve

Hi Sigve,

Unfortunately, Excel and Word do not, as far as I know, support sorting polytonic Greek. I had a quick look around but could not find an easy solution for Greek sorting - there is a complex program that appears to do it at the following site:

I hope this helps. Please feel free to email me at [email protected] if you would like some more information on us providing a Greek sorting solution for Excel, Access, and Word.
