Sorting Tables in Excel 2003?
 

I'm having a hard time figuring out how to sort tables that consist of more
than one row in Excel 2003.
It is like a checklist of things that need to be done, but in date order.
Some dates have more than one task, so some tables have more rows than others
and I need to figure out how to sort everything in date order but keep the
tables together. Is it possible to do this? Thanks

Not without filling the dates into the empty cells.

Easiest method is select the date column and F5SpecialBlanksOK

Type an = sign into active blank cell the point or arrow to cell above.

Hit CRTL + Enter to fill blanks.

Copy the column and in place paste specialvaluesokesc.
