Not quite sure what you mean first of all. Are you trying to sort on a row
while also copying the corresponding values from other rows? If so just
select all your data and <Data><Sort>. If that didn't get at your problem
reply back being a little more specific.

There's no built in feature that will keep rows together when you sort a
table. However, you could enter all the headings in each row, and use
conditional formatting to hide the duplicates, as described here:
