Advice needed...

I need to sort 4 random numbers into numerical order. the numbers would be
entered into a row for example, A1:A4.

Now, I need to be able to check each of the numbers and place them in
numerical order, highest first, in A10:A13.... is this possible. I can take
the highest and lowest by way of the max and min function but my head is
caved in trying to think of how to sort the 2 middle ones out. Any help on
this would really be appreciated..... Thanks in advance!!

Try

=LARGE(A1:A4,1)
=LARGE(A1:A4,2)
etc.

In A10 put

=LARGE($A$1:$A$4,ROW(1:1))


copy down to A13
