Hello all!

I export the names of files in a specific folder. Here is a small sample:

<table style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 189pt;" width="252" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><col style="width: 189pt;" width="252"> <tbody><tr style="height: 12.75pt;" height="17"> <td class="xl65" style="height: 12.75pt; width: 189pt;" width="252" height="17">6678000005160W_1369467.TIF</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 12.75pt;" height="17"> <td class="xl65" style="border-top: medium none; height: 12.75pt;" height="17">77410G09102881_1391254-1.tif</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 12.75pt;" height="17"> <td class="xl65" style="border-top: medium none; height: 12.75pt;" height="17">77410G09102881_1391254-2.tif</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 12.75pt;" height="17"> <td class="xl65" style="border-top: medium none; height: 12.75pt;" height="17">77410G09102881_1391254-3.tif</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 12.75pt;" height="17"> <td class="xl65" style="border-top: medium none; height: 12.75pt;" height="17">77410G09102881_1391254-4.tif</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 12.75pt;" height="17"> <td class="xl65" style="border-top: medium none; height: 12.75pt;" height="17">77410G09102881_1391254-5.tif</td> </tr> </tbody></table>
The problem is that I need Excel to sort by name the same way that Explorer does. I need it that way because I use another program to manipulate the files based on the spreadsheet I make. Any suggestions?

Wildcard in VLOOKUP
Use =VLOOKUP("Apple*" to find apple, Apple, or applesauce
