How can I sort alphabetically some of my org-mode tasks which are in the
format of [1] please? I can sort them once the TODO flag is removed, but
I would like to sort them before then.

Thanks
Sharon.

I think you can do it the usual way, with `org-sort-entries'. Have you
tried it? It works here.

Thanks Nicolas for replying.

I wasn't aware of 'org-sort-entries' and it does work extremely well, thanks.

Thanks
Sharon.
