Row sort ascending

[Nathan]

Hi

I have an excel spreadsheet that I am trying to sort ascending by user name.
Most of the time this works with no problems. However sometimes there are
some records that appear to be locked and do not get sorted. The records
above and below get sorted but these ones do not.

I am importing data from other excel spreadsheets so not sure if this is
causing the problem.

Any help on this would be appreciated.


Many Thanks

Nathan

They may be importing as text instead of dates? You might want to convert
the date column to number format each time you import. Just select a blank
cell way off to the right (like AA1) and copy it, then highlight your date
column and Paste Special > Add to convert the entire column from text to
numeric, then format as dates, every time you import. You can also record a
macro to do this.
