In column A, include all your alphabetized titles, starting in A2.
Then use this formula in, say, cell B2 =INDEX(A:A,ROW(A1)*2) And this in C2 =INDEX(A:A,ROW(A1)*2+1) and copy down. That way, when you add a title, you can sort column A only, and your list will update. HTH, Bernie MS Excel MVP "Lin400" wrote in message ... I phrased this badly before.

Great! Thank you! Your answer also addressed my next question about adding
new titles and having the columns automatically adjust; and they do. Thanks again this was more than I expected.
