Sort 2 columns similtaneoously
I have two columns that I would like to keep together.
Street and house number. Is there someway to make the street the primary sort and carry the house number (which is in a separate column) along with it? In other words, I'd like for the street name to be in order and the house numbers to be in sequence for that street. Thanks, Doug |

Sort 2 columns similtaneoously
Select the data (it works best if the columns have labels in the top cells)
Use Data Sort Specify sort first by Street then by Number If there is more info (such as names) , make sure you select tall relevant columns before sorting Play save: do a Save As and work on this copy of your data until you know you have it right best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme remove caps from email "Doug Mc" wrote in message ...

Thanks Bernard,
How do I tell Excell that the top 4 rows are titles and how do I tell it to print them on each page? "Bernard Liengme" wrote in message ...
