Sorting Data

Why does my header line sometimes mix in with the data when i sort columns?

RE: Sorting Data

Hello Samantha,

When you sort using the Sort button you need to ensure the checkbox is ticked in the top right, that reads, My data has headers. By ticking this option the program will ignore the header row and leave it where it is.

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Mark

Excel tip:

Keyboard Shortcuts to Add Rows or Columns

Couple of other keyboard shortcuts. Shift+spacebar selects a row, Ctrl+spacebar selects a column. Select either row or column (or several) and use Ctrl and + to insert or Ctrl and - to delete rows or columns.
