Try the function "sort.col"!

Subject: sorting dataframe on rownames

Could anyone tell me how to sort a dataframe alphabetically according to the rownames ?  Sorry for the triviality. 

I could create a column equal to the rownames vector, sort on that and then remove the column, but it seems there should be a quicker way about.

Many thanks for any help.  (Using version 6.1).
