How do I sort birthdays?
Hi,
you can use an auxiliar column with this formula =year(a2), copy it down, sort by this column. hth -- regards from Brazil Thanks in advance for your feedback. Marcelo "Lois" escreveu: I would like to sort the birthdays to put in order for the year |

You should be able to just sort by the date -- if those values are really dates.
On the other hand, if you wanted to sort by month (all January together no matter the year), I'd use a helper column with: =text(a2,"mmddyyyy") drag down And sort by this helper column. Lois wrote: I would like to sort the birthdays to put in order for the year -- Dave Peterson |

Create other columns - one for the year and one for the month. Sort by
those columns. Ex: A B C 1/1/2006 2006 1 (January) The formula in column B would be "=YEAR(A1)" and the formula in column C would be "=MONTH(A1)" "Lois" wrote in message ... I would like to sort the birthdays to put in order for the year |
