I have Microsoft "office" that came with my computer. Is there any program in there that will alphabetize a list I make? I want to arrange my recipes in the book I made so I don't have to keep going through the pages and without having to take everything out and arrange myself alphabetically? Some of my pages have recipes on both sides of the paper, and I don't want to have to redo a majority of them.
All I want to be able to do is have the listing in the front of my cookbook alphabetically.
That's probably the easiest way to make a list that you can sort. Just remember, if you put information in more than one column, you need to select ALL the columns in order to get everything to sort together. I'd be happy to help if you're not all that familiar with using spreadsheets. It's really pretty easy.
Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.
If I were doing it, I'd put the recipe name in one column (column a), and the page number in the next column. Then, when you want to sort it alphabetically by name, you'd highlight both columns. Then you go to the "Data" pull down menu and select "sort by column A". Don't know what version of Office you have; that's how it works in the one I have.

Just realized that this feature is only available in newer versions of word.

Yes, but I didn't see that the font was small till it started to print. It will be ok this way. At least I won't have to flip through 80 pages for what I want. :>)
