Hello
I have a dataset and I am trying to use a formula. However despite spening ages on it it still not working. I am new to this and am probably missing something pretty obvious, and I was wondering if someone could have a look at it to see if it is written incorrectly.

=-1.675 + (0.037*e2) + (0.094*h2) + (1.13*ax2) + (0.99*BP2) – (0.013*O2) – (0.66*X2)

Thanks!

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"

The substraction symbol that you use wrong: it must be "-". So, try the following:

=-1.675 + (0.037*E2) + (0.094*H2) + (1.13*AX2) + (0.99*BP2) - (0.013*O2) - (0.66*X2)

I meant it worked :)
Seems like the formula I copied wasn't actually using minus signs but dashes as you pointed out :/
Thanks again!
