In text view equations are ordered by group - so set the groups (Edit>Set Group perhaps with the same names as the views) in sketch mode and then View>as Text should be ordered the way you want.
Thank you for your responses. I have a number of sub-models in my model and i want to put the equations for each sub-model in the appendix. Can Vensim organize these equations per sub-model? In my text view, the equations are organized alphabetically.
