Owing to the fact that the order in which the symbols in the local symbol table in a function block are arranged affects the order in which the operands in the function block are arranged, the data in the local symbol table in a function block can not be sorted in this way. 6.2.10 Filtering the Symbols Users can view the symbols which meet the same conditions.

When the program in a project is compiled, devices within the range which is set are assigned to the symbols. If the number of symbols is larger than the devices within the range, an error message showing that the devices are insufficient will appear after the program in a project is compiled. Please refer to section 6.1.4 for more information about assigning devices to the symbols in a project.
