Default Linked cells from master data sheet and sorting

Hi

Provide you mark your complete block of data on master sheet before
carrying out the sort, then the data will remain attached to the correct
person.

If the data on your master sheet is in A1:C1000 mark the whole range of
A1:C1000 then carry out the sort based on column A.
Any data in columns B and C will move in correspondence with any move of
the data in column A.
