A way I have always used was developed back in the HC days. Assuming you have your
list in the variable “yourList"
sort lines of yourList by word 1 of each & word 2 of each & word 3 of each
I used single letters as an example, but my text is tab delimited and
each cell is moderately long text.
I think using "word 1 of each & word 2 of each & word 3 of each" or
"item 1 of each & item 2 of each & item 3 of each" concatenates all 3
"cells" together and sort by that string of characters. I think this
could result in an invalid sort order of, for example, item 2 started
with words found at the end of some items 1's.
