    Automatically Sorting Data

    Is there a formula that will take data and automatically sort it as the dates change.

    In this Summary Sheet:
    in A1 I have a list of Names, B1 List of dates. This data is reference from another sheets data, which is where the changed are actually made. I wanted to see if there is a formula that will automatically sort the data as I key changes to certain peoples dates. These changes happen throughout the year, and not all at the same time. I know I can re-sort the data, but if there is a formula I can use, I'd like to try it.

    Re: Automatically Sorting Data

    Actually the data is just in one sheet that I want to sort. So from A1:A22 - B1:B22. Names in A, Dates in B

    ETA:
    The data in Summary reference 22 different sheets, that are named by the employee name. In B8 of every sheet is their annual review day.
    So in summary sheet
    A1 =Priscila!A5
    B1=Priscila!B8
