BillBob:

If you want to sort a multi-column range of cells:

Select the entire range of cells
<data<sort
Set your sort parameters
Click the [OK] button.

If all of the relevant columns are not pre-selected, they will not sort with
the column you want sorted and you'll have out-of-sync mess.

Does that help?

When attempting to sort data, newly entered data seems to stay the same while
the old data sorts itself. I have one whole column that is now mismatched.
I am a newbie to this program so I am sure I am doing not doing something
basic.
