Default Excel sorting logic

Are you asking if the sorting will reorder the fields that aren't used as keys?

Then the answer is no. Excel will keep those non-key fields in the same order
as before the sort. Try a few experiments and you should be able to convince
yourself.

Hi,
Is it safe to assume that when a sheet of 5 col and say 50 rows, and you
sort by col two, the rows with the save value to col 2 (now together) will be
in the same order as the orginal sheet
