Sorting and filtering do not change or reorder the actual data in the table, but only its visible presentation.

Sorting Rows

You can sort the rows of a Data Table being edited or viewed. To enable sorting, click the column header. Clicking a header already used for sorting will reverse the sorting order.

Filtering Rows

Another convenient feature is data filtering. To enable filtering, enter some text in filter text field located in Data Table Editor toolbar (and indicated by a looking glass icon). Table contents will be filtered to show only rows matching to the filter.
