sorting multiple rows at once (including merged cells)
 
I would like to sort groups of rows without undoing all of the merged cells.
Each PO uses 4 rows. I want to assign a building order to tell production
which one to build first.
The first column (BO a.k.a. building order) is merged into groups of 4 cells
(for each PO)
The second column is merged for company name.
i.e.

BO / Company / Product Size
_____________________________________
/ / 2 x 8
2 / Zippo / 3 x 9
/ / 4 x 6
/ / 9 x 14
_____________________________________
/ / 8 x 10
1 / Primetech / 2 x 9
/ / 3 x 7
/ / 5 x 9
_____________________________________
When I use the 'SORT' in the first column, it brings primetech to the
top...but only the top row of the product size. I need it to bring up all 4.
