The only chance I can think of is if maybe they were sorted ASCENDING
originally, then using a COPY of your file, just try re-sorting on the
LastName column in ASCENDING order.........otherwise, I think you are out of
luck.

Hi,
This may sound pretty stupid to you guys but I'm stumped. I have a spread
sheet I created that is nothing more than a list of names and addresses. I
wanted to do a mail merge. Anyway I accidentally sorted only the last name
column decending. Now all the last names are not 'connected' to the correct
first names! I tried exiting the sheet and saying 'no' when asked to save the
sheet. Didn't help! How can I get these names back where they belong?
