Default Data Sort

Here is my data:
A B C D
0 [NONE] none 1
1 Teaspoon tsp 18
2 Tablespoon Tbs 3
3 Cup cup 0
4 Piece pce 5
5 Each ea 15
6 Ounce oz 7
7 Pound lb 8
8 Gram g 21
9 Kilogram Kg 10
10 Fluid ounce fl-oz 11
11 Milliliter ml 22
12 Liter ltr 13
13 Gallon gal 12
14 Pint pnt 9
15 Quart qt 16
16 Milligram mg 14
17 Microgram mcg 2
18 Intake intk 6
20 Bottle btl 17
21 Box box 20
22 Can can 4

A - is an ascending list of numbers that identify measurements
B - aligned with the numbers in A, this is the full name of each measurement
C- as in B, these are short forms of the measurement names
D- is a list in random order (actually previously sorted based on data in 32
columns to the right of column D not displayed here).

Objective:
To sort Columns A, B & C into the order of the random order in column D.

Issue:
I have posted this in several areas, but the responses all result in a sort
that does not achieve the necessary results - most yield a full re-sort of
all 4 columns - not what I require.

An urgent reply is needed, this project is huge, is overdue and I'm in a
panic.

Thank you in advance for the right answer.......
