Sort 'Quick Launch' in alphabetical order - SharePoint 2010

Just a quick question about the 'Quick Launch' panel in SharePoint 2010
Is it possible to remove document libraries from the quick launch panel?
Also is it possible to sort the 'Quick Launch' in alphabetical order?
I have been through the settings in the 'Look and feel' tab - There must be a better way of sorting your document libraries than selecting the order manually?
Thanks
you could do this by going to site actions>site settings then navigation. You'll see in the navigation editing and sorting part, the current navigation is the quick launch navigation. You could freely remove every single one of the items and change them with the links you want. Unfortunately, you can't arrange them in alphabetical order in an instant.
To sort the left nav alphabetically within headings (at least in SP 2010):
Click Site Actions > Site Settings.
Under Look and Feel, click Navigation.
In the Sorting section, click Sort automatically. The Automatic Sorting section will appear.
In the Automatic Sorting section, set the sorting options you want.
Click OK.
Believe me you can sort them, by re-arranging the number.
Follow this step:
Site Action - Site Settings - Quick Launch - in the menu at the top of the page select change order.
There you will be able too number the order you want your list in.

Google custom search with ability to search specific section

I want to use google custom search for my wordpress setup. I need the custom search to be able to search the whole site or if a checkbox is ticked, only search within a certain category of the site.
Can anyone point me in the right direction with this?
You can have 2 custom search engines- one searching your whole site and another one searching the specific categories you mentioned. Based on whether the checkbox is checked or not, you can display the appropriate search box in your page. A demo of how to select specific sites or whole domains is shown in http://preciselyconcise.com/apis_and_installations/google_custom_search.php

Creating a sharepoint 2007 search for a list (results only from that list)?

I have been researching this for some time, and have not been able to find a solution. I would just like to have a search bar that when an ID is entered, the search will return all the list items that have that ID.
I'm sure I am leaving out details (as I am a sharepoint novice), but any help would be greatly appreciated.
What you need is not search, but filter.
In the view of you library, follow these steps :
Put the page in edit mode
Add a web part "Text Filter Web Part"
Open its tool pane
Name the filter, "IDFilter" for example, and validate
Still in edit mode, select "Modify shared Web Part" --> "Connections" --> "Send filter values to name of your library"
Choose the field that holds your ID and click "Finish"
That's it. You can now type the ID in the field, and it will dynamically apply a filter on the ID field.
That said, you should post you future questions on http://SharePoint.stackexchange.com. this is a SharePoint dedicated stackexchange site.

SharePoint DropDown List Filter

I want to be able to filter a SharePoint list based on the values present (easy by clicking the filter button at the top of the list for each column). However I'd like to give options in a drop down menu and once chosen the list would be refilted based on the options I give. Is this possibile to do in the browser or would it require designer or actual code? Thank you.
This is all SharePoint 2010 Enterprise Server knowledge; I've never used 2007.
What #Ryan is alluding to here is that you can click a down-arrow on most list columns to filter them. One caveat is that if the column is multi-select, it won't display a drop-down. (SharePoint doesn't know how to group, filter, or sort on multi-select columns.) Another caveat could be that if you're displaying the list items in such a way that their headings don't appear (such as in a List View web part, or maybe in some of the styles...) you obviously won't be able to filter.
A solution might be to use a "SharePoint List Filter" web part, which uses a list column as the source for filter values which can then be sent to other web parts -- such as a List View web part. Presumably, you could use the list you're intending to filter as a source for the Filter web part itself. From a UX perspective maybe this might help you display the list with different styling, but still get the drop-down filter directly in the content area.
A caveat with the "SharePoint List Filter" web part is that it's not actually a drop-down per se, but instead shows a little filter icon that pops up a dialog in which users then have to select a value.
Note there's also the "Managed Metadata Navigation" feature that would give users dropdowns (for e.g. choice columns) and metadata filter fields (for managed metadata columns). These show up in the Quick Launch (left-nav area) if configured on the list/library settings. The feature must first be enabled on the site.
