Default Can a sort be set up to run within another sort?

I am trying to set up about 4 sort levels, i.e.

first sort: no to yes
2nd sort: alpha name
3rd sort: alpha broker
4th sort: type of account

All sorts are alpha

Highlight the data to be sorted (including header row if you have
one), then sort the lower orders first - for example alpha name, alpha
broker and type of account. With the data still highlighted, click on
Data | Sort again and this time sort on the remaining higher level
criteria (in this case no to yes).

Hope this helps.

Pete
