Alpha sorting Household and Individual

We are having the same issue – in our system we have “Program Listing Sort Name.” But it could have been a custom output set criteria. Sorry if that wasn’t much help.

I'm making a mail list that contains both Household and Individual records. Development want to be able to sort the list alphabetically. But sorting by last name doesn't work because the first letter of  household is somebody's first name . For example, the Steven and Liza Hanks Household will sort as "S" and not as "H."

I see that the constituent records have a "Sort Name" field. I tried running the list through and Output Set , but I can't find "Sort Name" as an option in Output Set Builder. Maybe it's right in front of me.

Any suggestions?
