Default Sort month/date/year data using month and date only

Hi "daddylonglegs",

Yes, I can see where this might become an issue and luckily I did not have
any of these dates in the system. However, I will also keep this version of
the recommended solutions on hand for future reference.

Thanks very much for your help.

Hi,

you could use an auxiliar column with =month(a1)&day(a1) copy it down
and
sort by this column

I think you'd have a problem with this approach. 11th January and 1st
november would both become 111.

For a one column approach try

=DATE(0,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1))
