This works for data in one column, i have 3 columns of data that needs to be
organized, for example:
1 2 3
1 4 7
5 8 9
1 2 3
1 2 3
5 8 9

organize to give
1 2 3
1 4 7
5 8 9

Thanks, i'm in a bind, i have about 8000 rows of numbers i need to sort
though.

Hi,

Sort the data into the number order. Let's say that is in column A. Then
in the first free column, make the first cell 0, and then do in row 2
=IF (A1=A2,1,0)
This will then equal zero on the first line of a new number.

Then Copy, Paste Special, Values on this column of ones and zeros, and then
sort on it. The data at the top will be a unique list of numbers. You can
just then delete all the 1s.

HTH,
