Question
I am trying to sort a spreadsheet. However, after I insert an empty column to the right of the sorting column, the rest of the columns on the right of the empty column can't sort anymore.This also happens to the left columns
How could I solve this problem ???
Thanks in advance

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
How does it work?
Do you mean select 2 cells one from sorting column and the other one from inserted column?
I tried it but it didn't let me sort
sorry maybe I misunderstood your answer

If you insert a column between column A and B (the previous column B becomes C) select A:C prior to a sort on either column A or C.
