Karen, You are right, I could not find it either. I know that I've done this in the past, but I admit it has been a while. It must have been in an earlier version of Word, or some other word processor. All I can say is I must be getting old thus qualified to say "Back in my day we could sort on the second word on a line".
I don't have time right now to look into this more right now, but I will put it on my list of things to do and see if I can figure it out.

I've played with all the buttons and can't get it to sort that way.
