In the Data View, you can quickly sort your data with respect to a single variable by right-clicking on the variable name and selecting Sort Ascending or Sort Descending. If the original order of your rows is important, make sure you have a variable of that specifically and uniquely identifies the correct order of the cases first! That way, you can return to the original row order by sorting on the "order identifier" variable. Once you sort the cases of a dataset, it is not possible to "un-sort" the data to its original order. The values for the selected variables can be sorted in ascending (smallest to largest, or alphabetical) or descending order (largest to smallest, or reverse alphabetical). Sorting cases will rearrange the rows based on a given variable (or variables).
