sorting
Say your data is in A2:101. Create an auxiliary column with the
following formula: =IF(ISNUMBER(A2),"ZZZ"&TEXT(F3,REPT("0",LOG(MAX($A $2:$A$101))+1)),F3) Sort descending by the aux column.

Hi,
That happens by default. I tested it. In a column, I input text and numeric values. When I sort that column, text values appear at the bottom -- Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com "teh_chucksta" wrote in message ... how can i sort a column with numbers and text, in descending order, where the text falls to the bottom and not the top? thanks, charlie |
