Sorting

For sorting a large data list how do you sort by size, alphabetically, date order etc?

RE: Sorting

Dear Cliff,

Hope you are enjoying your 2nd day of Excel training.

To sort a list of data:

    1. click any cell of data table
    2. DATA menu > Sort
    3. Pick the column heading you wish to sort the list by (you can select up to 3 columns)
    4. Press ok


See if this helps.

Regards,

Katie Woo

Excel tip:

The dual nature of toolbar buttons

Many toolbar buttons are dual purpose, though the two purposes are often linked in some way. For example, Align Left aligns a cell's contents to the left of the cell. However, hold down Shift and press the Align Left button: Excel aligns the cell contents to the right.
You may respond: So what? Well, you can reduce the number of buttons on your toolbar to make your screen less cluttered and allow more room for, perhaps, some of your own commands. After all, what's the point of an Align Right button when Shift+Align Left does the same thing?
