Default Sort Dates

Oldest to Newest must be a 2007 function.

I am not familiar with it.

I still believe you do not have real dates but perhaps 2007 treats these
differently than earlier versions.

If my numbers are "text" why are my sort options "Oldest to Newest" and not
"A-Z"? This sounds like the simpler method but how do I let excel know this
is (supposed to be) text?
