![]() Hi - I have looked over this site and others, and I have not been able to find the answer to this problem. I am currently using Excel as a database. Here are the basics of my problem. The first row of cells have names and business location. Below the first business location, if the party has another office, I have put the other office in the cell immediately below the first office. For example - Cell 1A - Smith, Bob Cell 1B - Toledo Cell 2A - blank Cell 2B - Dallas When I sort alphabetically, Smith, Bob and Toledo are sorted, but Dallas ends up at the bottom of the page. Is there a way to link these together? I need to sort this information alphabetically. When I highlight all of the cells and push the sort button, only the complete entries that have name and business location are alphabetized. Then, the secondary business location appears at the bottom of the page b/c there is not a name in the first cell. Is there any way that I can only sort by the name alphabetically, but link all of the location information to the one cell so that it will not appear at the bottom of the page? Also - I need to have a blank line in between my entries. I have been manually inserting the line. Is there any way to do this automatically?
