Default Sorting random Data created from a random formula

I have 4 columns of data, I need to sort it so when the end user gets it,
they donot need to sort it.

example:

Random Hour Skill Location Sort Loc Sort Hour Sort Skill
1 12 8 2
2 16 12 14
3 12 4 12
4 14 6 16
5 10 10 20

The data is randomize by a formula, but I need to sort it into another
column, the sort needs to be by Location, then by Hour then Skill. How can i
do this? I want to sort this totally into another set of columns labeled Sort
Loc, Hour & Skill.

Need help

Thank you

If the data is randomized then how will you maintain the sort order? As soon
as user runs any calculation random data will be refreshed...
