Where's the Sort by New Message option?Not sure when the layout of the newsgroups changed but I can't seem to find the ability to sort by new message in a thread instead of sorting by just the original thread date.
That was hugely helpful as I could follow along and see what threads were still active.
If you're gonna hang around in the newsgroups (any newsgroups), you may want to
start using a newsreader.
Microsoft Outlook Express can do it for you.

How to sort account list?I'm using MS Money 2004 Small Business. In the account list, my accounts
are catagorized by and in this order:
- bank accounts
- credit accounts
- investment accounts
- loans and liabilities
- asset accounts
TOTAL BALANCE
In the above view, I cannot easily determine totals for assets and
liabilities. The following view does this.
- bank accounts
- investment accounts
- asset accounts
SUBTOTAL
-loans and liabilities
SUBTOTAL
TOTAL BALANCE
How do I get the above view?
Thanks,
Brett

SortingHi,
is it possible to use variable for sorting?
Something like:
declare @sort varchar(10)
SET @sort='column1 DESC'
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY @sort)AS rowId, * FROM table
Is dynamic SQL only option?
Thank you,
Simon

Row names will not move with sortEach row in my summary table in Sheet1 is hyperlinked to a corresponding table in Sheet2 with additional details.
I need to move the rows in my summary table (Sheet1) and preserve the links to and from the details tables (Sheet2).
I found that I can move rows in Sheet1 with cut & insert and the hyperlinks are maintained. I can travel from a row in summary table (Sheet1) to details table (Sheet2) and back, even after the corresponding row (Sheet1) was moved.
But if I sort the rows in Sheet1 the links from Sheet2 back to corresponding rows in Sheet1 lead to presorted locations. Apparen...

Hi Brent,
Install the TrimAll macro, select the column and invoke

I did create a macro to sort after I selected them but still one at a time.
Does it have to be a macro? I can edit a macro but don't really know how to

Yes, it has to be a macro. The following should do it. This macro loops

I assume you mean "Is it".
The form sort order has nothing to do with editing or adding new
records, so the answer is yes.
If you cannot edit or add new records, make sure the form's record
source, if it is a query, is updateable. Some queries are not.

An odd thing: depending on how the sender's name comes across, it doesn't

I'd just remove all the merged cells from the range to sort.

sorting issueHi,
When a range of columns are highlighted and a sort is performed on only one
column empty cells above the sort display first. How can this be prevented.
I know when there is data in any of the other column but not on the column
being sorted this will happen.
Any thoughts?
Pat
Are you sure the cells are really empty?
They don't contain spaces or even formulas that evaluate to "". (Even formulas
converted to values that returned "")?

Sort not sorting all rowsI'm using Excel 2000. have created a document, uploaded it to google docs

Sort and exclude certain words
Hi ...
I work in a public library and frequently export lists of books from
our online catalog to Excel, so that I can manipulate the data in
various ways.
My problem in sorting in Excel is this: Our library catalog excludes
words like "The" "A" or "An" at the beginning of a title when sorting.
Excel, however, does not.
Is there any way I can sort on a field in Excel and have it ignore
certain words at the beginning of a string?
Thanks!

Sort date by day and not yearNeed to sort birthdates by month and day; ignore year.

Not like this:

3/15/2002
Please help and thank you for your help.

Hi
one way:
- add an additional helper column (lets ay B)
- insert the following formula in B1 (if column A stores your list):
=MONTH(A1)
- copy this formula for all rows
- sort with this helper column

Not sorting as expectedI have a database some 10 columns wide and 1200 rows deep. When I sort by
one particular column it sorts BLANKS before text meaning that the data
appears at the bottom of the database although still in alphabetical order.
I have the formatting set to GENERAL for the whole column and do want the
blank cells. None of the other columns do this. I am totally perplexed as I
thought Excel sorted blanks nearer the end of it's priority.
I have tried formatting the column to TEXT and even NUMBER also but it still
makes the data appear at the bottom of the table. This doesn't make any

sort without the sort button
Hi all.

The problem is that I want to be able to use cell formulas to do th

Sorting...I am trying to sort a csv list.
The first column is a date & the 2nd is time.
Can I merge these 2 together, so I can get date & time together, allowing me
to sort based on that?
If they're really dates and times, you could just use a helper cell and then use
a formula like:
=a1+b1
You can give it a nice format showing date and time if you like.
But why not just sort the list using the date as the primary key and the time as
a secondary key?

RankingI previously revived a formula (Thanks Max) to Sort and Rank my Stores by the
Strongest Store to the Lowest Store. It did exactly what it was supposed to
do with my sample layout I made with just Four stores and scores. But when I
added all 14 stores to the list (each store as a rank like 2.45 or 3.56 or
11.75) it will not sort them properly.
I am using
=IF(ISNA(RANK(Q7,Q7:Q20,1)),"",INDEX(O7:O20,RANK(Q7,Q7:Q20,1)))
for the ranking system. It works when the stores Ranks are SINGLE digit
numbers, but when they go into the tenths or hundredths the formula can't ...
Sort range changes during sortAfter highlighting the columns and rows I want sorted, I select data and

Thanks in Advance.
This is a complete guess--I couldn't duplicate what happened to you in xl2003.
Do you have merged cells in that range?
If yes, maybe that's the problem.

How do I sort for the maximum values in each year in excel?How do I sort data so I can see (sort?) the maximum value for each year in
excel. I have 365 values per year and 78 years worth of data. I got excel to
sort each year from greatest value to smallest, but now I want to sort it so
each years max value is shown first, then the next years max value, etc.
You would need extra help columns with formulas or using a filter
if you apply auto filter and select the year from the year column and then
copying the result somewhere else, then do the sorting base on the value
descending. There is now way the built in sort can handle it in one fell
swoop

Unfortunately, Entourage does not allow sorting by one field and
sorting within that grouping by a second field. Just one field at a
time.
