Simple sort Problem
I am trying to sort a simple 3 column list, consisting of acolumn containing
M or F for Male Female, Name and a percentage value. I want to be able to sort so that all of the m's are grouped together and their & value displayed in decending value. And like wize all of the F's. The I can copy the top 5 Male scores and the top 5 female scores to the appropriate report page. I have tried using the sort function but can't seem to get it to work properly. Can anyone help???? |

Simple sort Problem
Hi Kevin
Click on all 3 column letters, to select the columns. DataSortSort by column A Descending then by column C descending. If you have headers in row 1, ensure the header row is clicked, and instead of column letters, you will see the header name as the Sort by options. -- Regards Roger Govier "kevincanuk" wrote in message ...
