Putting An Excel Spreadsheet In Alphabetical Order
32 Answers
I am currently listing a load of song titles on an Excel spreadsheet.
For some reason, it has issues with titles that start with the word 'Don't'.
When I click the A-Z facility, the list comes out more or less alphabetically, but some titles are thrown out of their alphabetical place and appear elsewhere for no reason that I can figure.
I have tried making a new list, but exactly the same thing happens.
Any ideas what's wrong, and how to fix it?

Thanks - but I have already done that, and it doesn't work.

watch the whole thing through or skip to 0.29 to show you how to use custom sort.

Maydup - // Hoorah! odd how it occured in the new document too, but its solved and thats all that matters. //
Thanks - my vague curiosity about how the issue occured in a new document was rapidly eclipsed by my euphoria at having sorted it out - with some help from my tech friends on here, to whom, thanks again.
