Default pivot table sorting

I add multiple fields to the row labels so I can summarize data, in the
following example my data is summarized by course #(9243), then teacher
name(cortese), then student id(which is a unique ID that needs to come before
student name), then student name. What I need is to have the student name
sorted alpha for each teacher. Any suggestions?



9243 Cortese, Cynthia 130056 Willerth

130123 Gabriel

306873 Serafin-Yehl

If you switch the order of student name and ID it should sort itself in Alpha
order.
