How do I sort names Alphabelically in my lists

In the last Windows all I did was press "Sort" and it all happened.

A change of Windows version shouldn't affect how Excel works. Which windows
version have you changed from and to? Have you changed Excel versions as
well? Which version of Excel were you using before, and which version are
you using now?
If your problem is in changing from Excel 3003 to 2007 you may wish to look
at:

http://www.rondebruin.nl/0307commands.htm or

It also isn't clear how sorting names in a list relates to charts? Perhaps
you could explain to us what you are trying to do to your chart, and what
type of chart you are using too? And exactly what sequence did you go
through on your previous Excel and Windows combination?

Hi,

Sorting in Excel basically works the same regardless of the operating
system. What version of Excel are you sorting in and what is the list you
are sorting?

Just one minor point in all versions of Excel pressing the Sort (button?)
would only open the Sort dialog box. (Note in 2003 and earlier this toolbar
button is not even exposed). Your two choices are Sort Ascending or Sort
Descending as far as buttons on the toolbars are concerned, until 2007, in
which case you do have a Sort button but again it takes you to the Sort
dialog box.

If this helps, please click the Yes button

Cheers,
