Creating Data Set sort Available Fields box

Good Afternoon,

I am testing out BIRT for BMC Remedy AR System and was creating Data Sets to begin moving our reports over. I use the BMC Remedy Data Source which lets me select a Form and then add fields from that form. The box for Available Fields is showing three columns, Name, ID, and Data Type. The listing is sorted by ID, which does not help at all when trying to find a field among hundreds. I have yet to find any way to reorder the list by Name so that I can efficiently add only the fields I need. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

So basically, the problem is only when adding new data to the "query" as shown in the attachment. By using a filter, it will only affect the data when it's imported.

When the data is imported, it is listed in alphabetical order, but I want the same when I add the data to the query field when creating a new data set (I've attached two photos to illustrate).

Want it to sort by Name and not ID.

I have attached an image of the screen that I am looking at for this problem.
