I added the references where necessary in the document by clicking on References->Inset Citation. The department requires that the references be numbered in the document, and be listed alphabetically in the Bibliography. So I set the style to ‘ISO 690 – Numerical Reference’. I then went to the end of the document, and created the Bibliography by clicking on ‘References->Bibliography’.

The Bibliography was created, but listed the citations in the order they appeared in the document, not in alphabetically, which is the required standard. I tried selecting the bibliography, and then tried sorting it, by clicking on ‘Home->Sort’, but got the error dialog box ‘The content cannot be sorted because it is part of content control’.

My question is: How do I sort the Bibliography alphabetically by author?

Here is the bibliography as it appears in my document:

I want it to look like this:

How do I achieve this?
