    Excel's 'sort by row function'

    X-No-Archive

    Please help

    I have various large ranges in which I wish to sort each row
    individually into numerical order. But Excel's 'Sort by row function'
    only does one row at a time

    Which method can I use to sort many rows into numerical order?

    Thanks.

    Vir,

    I think you want each individual row put into consecutive order, left to
    right, without regard to any other row. If so, you'll have to select the
    rows one at a time, and do a sort on each. The quick-sort toolbar buttons
    are wired to sort only vertically, so they won't do. You'll have to use
    Data - Sort. Any sort command is likely to result in "Excel found data next
    to your selection..." You should opt not to expand the selection, but to
    continue with the current selection. In the Data - Sort dialog, use
    "Options" and opt for left-to-right sorting, as I think you're doing. A
    macro could automate this.

    Another possible solution is formulas in a separate table to present the
    data as you want.
