Default SORT data containing formula

Hi,

If you can modify the formula to read =B1-6 you can copy that down and sort
on it.

How to sort data containing formula For example

Column A Column B Column C
1 10 =B1-B5=4
2 9 =B2-B5=3
3 8 =B3-B5=2
4 7 =B4-B5=1
5 6 =B5-B5=0

Now if I sort in descending order of Column A, the Data I expect is

Column A Column B Column C
5 6 =B1-B1=0
4 7 =B2-B1=1
3 8 =B3-B1=2
2 9 =B4-B1=3
1 10 =B5-B1=4

However the results of sorting are


Column A Column B Column C
5 6 =B1-B1=0
4 7 =B2-B3=-1
3 8 =B3-B5=-2
2 9 =B4-B7=9
1 10 =B5-B9=10
