One way may be to manually copy the data from the three columns, one
at a time, into a single column. In the column next to the Product #
column, write a formula to isolate the number:
=VALUE(MID(A2,FIND(" ",A2,1)+1,LEN(A2)-9))
where column A contains the list and 9 is the length of the word
"Product" plus 1 for the space plus 1 for the trailing alpha
character. The VALUE function converts the string character (returned
by the MID function) to a number.Then perform a sort on two levels: the first level is on the numbers created next to the list, and the second level is on the list itself to put it in ABC order. -- FORUM RULES (986+ members already BANNED for violation) 1) Use concise, accurate thread titles.
