Lists are one of the foundations of QuickBooks, and from time to time they can become out of order. That’s when they need to be resorted. Some common indicators that it’s time to resort your lists include:
Resorting any list will undo any special order you’ve applied to the list, and this activity can’t be done in multi-user mode. It’s always a good idea to backup your company file before undertaking an action that can’t be undone.
There are 8 lists that can be resorted. They are:
Since this technique is often used to address possible data corruption, we’ll outline the most efficient technique to resort multiple lists, but you can also choose to resort an individual list by opening up a Center and right clicking on a list element.
The first 4 lists are collectively referred to as Names or Entities, and there’s an easy way to resort these 4 lists:
The screenshot below shows the combined Name list in Step 4:
Our related article explains how to provide easy access to this combined list of all Names.
Resorting the Chart of Accounts and Items lists follow similar procedures, except each of these lists will have to be resorted individually. To access the Chart of Accounts, click the Lists->Chart of Accounts menu selection or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + A. To access the Items list, click Lists->Items. Opt to include inactive list entries, resort the list from the button in the lower left of the window, and uncheck the Include Inactive checkbox before proceeding to the next list.
Resorting Memorized Reports and Memorized Transactions are similar to the above steps, except there’s no need to include inactive list entries since they’re not allowed on these lists. To access Memorized Reports, click the Reports->Memorized Reports->Memorized Report List menu selection; to access Memorized Transactions, click Lists->Memorized Transactions or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + T.
After resorting lists, close and reopen your company file (.qbw) to insure that all changes are successfully written to disk.
Resorting lists is discussed in this Intuit knowledge base article.

According to Intuit, Error Code 16026 can occur when a user is upgrading QuickBooks. There are several causes for this error:
Because this error code appears under very different circumstances, it’s helpful to rule out 1 or more possibilities to move closer to a solution.
Microsoft Windows Vista disables weak ciphers by default. If you’re running Windows Vista, your cipher strength is 128 bit or greater. Vista also installs a version of Internet Explorer newer than 5.5. Therefore, unless you’ve managed to modify your cipher strength or replaced Internet Explorer with an older version, these possibilities can be ruled out for Vista users. You can confirm your Internet Explorer version and cipher strength on the Help->About Internet Explorer menu choice. An example of Internet Explorer 7 running on Vista Ultimate is shown below:
Vista users may encounter this error when attempting to install a QuickBooks version that is not Vista compatible. QuickBooks 2007 and Enterprise Solutions 7.0 and later versions are Vista compatible. If you’re upgrading from a non-Vista compatible version (e. g., QuickBooks 2006) to a compatible version (e. g., QuickBooks 2009), it may be the case that your older, incompatible version is triggering the error. As a precaution, uninstall all prior versions of QuickBooks before installing the replacement QuickBooks 2009. After you’ve uninstalled the prior version of QuickBooks, restart your system. Be sure to have at least 1 complete backup of all data files and original program downloads or CD’s before performing any update or program uninstall. If you’re not sure you have a reliable and complete backup, stop and consult with a qualified professional before continuing.
If a prior, incompatible version of QuickBooks is not triggering the error when running Vista, another possible problem area to check is a corrupt program file. Uninstall the Vista compatible version of QuickBooks (e. g., QuickBooks 2009) and perform a fresh installation. Again, be sure to have at least 1 complete backup of all data files and original program downloads or CD’s before performing any update or program uninstall. If this also fails to stop the error code from appearing, it’s possible that the installation source (download or CD) is corrupt or that the files that the QuickBooks installer extracted have become corrupt. If you downloaded the program directly from Intuit, try downloading a fresh copy. Uninstall the last installation and attempt a new installation from the most recent download.
