Date Sorting in Excel 2003
You could use a helper column with a formula in it:
=text(a2,"mm/dd/yyyy") It'll look like a date, but it's really a string. But since it's a string, you can sort it alphabetically. Ruth k. wrote: I need to be able to sort by dates of hire. Excel 2003 sorts everything by year and I need to sort by month then date and finally year. -- Dave Peterson |
