Add another column to your table.
In the first row of data, enter a formula that refers to the date, e.g.:

=TEXT(A2,"mm-dd")

where the birth date is in cell A2

Copy the formula down to the last row of data.
Sort on this column to organize the birthdays by month and day.

I have a column of birthdates (with years) and would like to sort these in
chronological order without reference to year of birth so I can determine
the order of birthdays during the year.

ps Thanks to Arvi and Dave for previous response-perfect.
