Default Sorting by Content

Hi there
I don't think this will work as it will sort the total suburbs in B and the
addresses by street number in A
The data in B does not align with col. A as B only contains the name of the
suburbs in the region
Thanks
Stephen

From my reply in the duplicate post in Worksheet Functions:

select all of the cells involved in both columns (and any more with
related
data), then use Data Sort and sort on Column B. To put the street
addresses
in some kind of order within the suburb, choose Column A as the second
sort
parameter.
