Final answer:

To sort records in ascending order in a Datasheet view, click the arrow next to the Client Name field header and select Sort A to Z. The correct answer is a. Click the arrow at the right of the Client Name field. Click the Sort A to Z option.

Step-by-step explanation:

To sort the records in a Clients table by the Client Name field in ascending order while viewing the table in Datasheet view, you can usually follow these steps:

  • Click the arrow at the right of the Client Name field header to display a dropdown menu.
  • From the dropdown menu, select the Sort A to Z option. This will rearrange the records with the Client Name values in ascending order.

While the other options mentioned might work in different contexts or with shortcuts, the typical approach in a datasheet view in most database software, like Microsoft Access, is to use the dropdown menu associated with a field header for sorting.
