How to link rows in Excel so they will stay together during sort?
In Excel I am trying to track body weights over time for hospital patients,
linked with specific interventions on the row below. I would like to link these 2 rows of data permanently so that when I sort based on intervention, the body weight data will stay with the intervention. |

Excel doesn't work like this. Each row in a list is a distinct record.
Your intervention information should go in the same row as the patient data, in the sortable database. You could construct a display worksheet that linked two rows of cells to one row of the data worksheet. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ hospital dietitian wrote: In Excel I am trying to track body weights over time for hospital patients, linked with specific interventions on the row below.
