I am a Drupal newbie using Drupal 7.

I made a taxonomy for documents, and then a view in the views module to list the documents. When the view searches by the taxonomy term, it seems to sort by the term's ID number, rather than the name of the term. I want an alpha sort on the term, not the ID number. Is there a setting to change this that I've missed, or do I need to do programming to change it? Seems like a pretty common situation.

ID Name  Name
1 Homeland   Homeland Security 
2 Criminal   Criminal Justice 
3 Violence   Violence Against Women

will sort as above, not with Criminal Justice first.
