Using a helper column, it is.
Assume number is in cell A2 - A1000, say.. in helper column, enter =Right(A2,4) Then sort based on the helper column... "Kristin S" wrote: I have a list of numbers that are 6 digits long & I want to sort them (ascending or descending) by the last 4 digits. Is this possible? |

Kristin,
One method is to insert a dummy column with formula =right(A1,4) Then use the sort function to sort the dummy column in ascending or descending order. Please advise if this works.
