Insert a helper column, and input this formula, copied down:
=COUNTIF(A$2:A2,A2) Then, select your data, go to Data - Sort. Sort by helper column first (ascending) then by your account no. -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "klafert" wrote: I have column A that has Account ID number and there are three sections.
