how do i sort a complete worksheet by sorting columns
 
I'm trying to sort a worksheet by columns but keep all the data on the rows
in the correct place. e.g. sort a work sheet by a date column and get it to
move all the information on each row aswell.

Make sure you select the entire range (all the columns you're working with)
before you do your sort.

Automatic means VBA.

Excel doesn't know when/how to sort things unless you give a command, either by
DataSort or by VBA.
