Default Re my question on sorting

I should clarify something re my question below, which was: I have a source
worksheet from which I've linked several other worksheets. If I alpha sort
the source worksheet, the sort results are fine -- has column-for-column,
row-for-row integrity -- all information in rows stays together with the
individual's NAME, which is what is sorted. However, if I sort any worksheet
that's linked to my primary worksheet, and I alpha sort the NAMES column, the
information from cells in other columns of that row do not sort with it.

CLARIFIED: In the secondary worksheets, some cells of columns are linked and
some are not. The ones that are linked sort; the cells each row that are not
linked to the primary worksheet do not sort.

DOUBLE-HELP!!!!!

Default Re my question on sorting

Do you still need the links? the fomulas will not change when yhou do the
sort as you can see. One solution is to remove the links by copying the page
with the links
and Paste Special with the values. This will replace the links with the
values of the cell.
