Hello World,

How do I sort the weekday and month in chronological order? 

I did sort by month but still doesn't work.

@Anonymous You need numeric Sort By columns. You create those using MONTH and WEEKDAY and then set your text columns to have a Sort By column of the corresponding numeric columns. This is done in the Column Tools tab of the ribbon.
