Good Afternoon,

I have a column with numbers for example, FRPSCL12509-5, FRPSCL497322-3, FRPSCL12442-7, etc, etc. ....The numbers will end with any number between 0 and 9. I would like to sort by that last number. Thank you.

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
I think you may have to add an extra column and in that extra column you would use the RIGHT function.

=RIGHT(A1,1)
This returns the last character in the string.
Then sort by this last character column.
