How do I sort a Spreadsheet?
I have a simple spreadsheet with multiple rows and columns. Columns contain:
Date, Text, and numbers. The information in the rows must be the same after sorting. How do I sort the spreadsheet by the column(s): dates, text, and/or numbers and insure that the original information in the rows stays the same? |

How do I sort a Spreadsheet?
Select the whole range before you invoke the sort. Don't leave Excel to
guess which rows & columns you wish to use. -- David Biddulph "Garrette" wrote in message ... I have a simple spreadsheet with multiple rows and columns. Columns contain: Date, Text, and numbers.

How do I sort a Spreadsheet?
I too have a simple spread sheet, not generated by myself though. I did
highlight the cells that I wanted to alphabetize, all but one did so? What is the problem? -- Carol :) "Garrette" wrote: I have a simple spreadsheet with multiple rows and columns.

How do I sort a Spreadsheet?
Sort can use the first row as labels or as data. When you open the sort
dialog there is a box to check indicating what you want. Let us know if this helps best wishes. -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme remove caps from email "Carol" wrote in message ...
