That doesn't work - that approach sorts all three columns - I only want to
sort columns 1&2 - with the results in the same random order as column 3
originally is in.

Highlight columns 1 to 3. Use DataSort. Specify you want to sort on Column

I have 3 columns of data. (in actual fact I have 73 columns, but do not
want
any sort of columns 3 to 73).

Column 1 is numeric data in ascending order.
Column 2 is Text data tied to and relevant to the numbers in column 1.
Column 3 is the same numeric data as in Column 1, but in random order.

I want to sort Columns 1 and 2 into the same random order as column 3.

How do I do this?

I would greatly appreciate a fast response - this is a huge, very late
project!!!
