I'm more of a novice than a beginner. Up to this point, I have had a peripheral experience with Excel. I am building a spreadsheet for work using Excel and I am having trouble with sorting the data.
The data I would like to sort the spreadsheet by is in column A. This data is numerical and is a composite score computed using info input elsewhere on the spreadsheet.
The problem is, when I attempt to sort the rows according to the scores in column A by ascending or descending order, the scores are not sorted in the correct order. I am using the Sort command (Data - Sort). Excel recognizes that there is data next to my selection and gives me the option to expand to include that data or just sort what I have selected (Column A). Either way, the data does not sort correctly in numerical order. I have specified the format in column A as numbers.
Brains a little fried working on this all day today. So, I apologize in advance if my typing is a little confusing. I tried to send up a couple of scans, but the files are too large and I can't shrink them without them being unreadable. Can anyone help?
Thank-you,
Richard
