Default Sorting Columns

Column A contains names, column B contains the percent changes that have
taken place (calculated from data in another table). How can I sort
(decending) the values in Column B and maintain its association with the name
in column A?

Default Sorting Columns

Hi,

Select both columns and then sort on Column A and the 2 columns will remain
'Paired'

I tried that and it didn't do anything. Note that column B does not contain
numbers. It contains equations ( =(D5-C5)/C5)) which give the percent change.
