You can import the list with correct sort order, assume the list is in
A1:A10, select A1:A10, do toolsoptionscustom lists, it should be select then just click import Now select the other list, do datasort and click the options button, from the dropdown select the list you imported and click OK twice -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "F.

Hi,
The simplest if it suits you needs is to put this in B1 and drag down =A1 Mike "F.

Maybe you could use a formula:
=A1 and drag down to B10. But I don't understand what you're really doing. F.
