Hi All,

I have a problem where I have to sort names A-Z using the last name but I have to show the first name first and the last name last. They also have to be in the same colum.

I have looked all over excel 2007.......

Please HELP!!
 

Excel Facts

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().
You would need a helper column that extracts the last name and then sort the 2 columns based on that helper column.
