    Sorting macro

    I did a search but not really finding what i need.
    I have a sheet with names and multiple dates in the same row, i need to make it possible for my assistant to enter in a new name at the bottom of the list, then enter all the dates in the same row, then click a button that runs a macro to sort the sheet alphabetically sorting the whole row so the dates stay with the correct name.
    I dont want my assistant to have to do it using the sort feature as they may mess something up!

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    I don't have Excel 2003 so I'm not sure if you can combine tables (called lists in 2003) and autofilter, but it is worth a try. Once set up, it is very easy to use and even if the person accidentally sorts it incorrectly, no data is lost and it is easily fixed.

    Lists:

    Autofilter:
