Just select all cells in your sheet, by clicking on the top left corner of the sheet - once all cells are selected they will "turn grey".
Then right click anywhere in the "greyed out area" and select "Format Cells" - from there select "Alignment Tab".
Click on "Merge Cells" until the box is empty (e.g. unticked), you may have to tick twice - I did - as the program knew that some cells had been merged and others hand not!
Finally click on "OK" and then perform your data sort as normal.
I wasn't a member of this forum until making the humble discovery above, but I figure sometimes you have to give back.
One final note I am using Office 2010 - hopefully this works on other versions of Office as well.
Kind Regards,
Davo
