I have recently started using Calc and am having difficulty in sorting
columns. Let me explain.
I have two columns. The first one has First Names listed and the second (to
the right) has Family Names, for example
Alec Mackintosh
Cedric Humblebee
David Whistleton
Edward Aldeburgh
I want to sort them so they appear as follows:
Edward Aldeburgh
Cedric Humblebee
Alec Mackintosh
David Whistleton
I have been into Data/Sort and endeavoured to choose the family name (in
alphabetical order) to sort by and tried to change the parameters but try as
I might, I cannot achieve what I want.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards from New Zealand on a very wet Wednesday evening.

Sorting can be done on a single column, or many. If you want to keep
the rows intact, select the entire spreadsheet before performing the
sort. The sort works only on the area selected.
