    how to autosort

    Hi there!

    I've created a very simple Excell 2011 document to help me keep track of my finances. It consists of four columns (date, description, amount and running total) and I want each item (the date, description and amount) to be ordered by date. The running total doens't move.

    The thing is, every time I add a new item or alter a date on an already entered item I have to select all and sort the data. Is there anyway to make it automatic? So that whever a date is changed or added it will automatically resort?

    Thanks!

    Jen

    Hi Jen and welcome to the forum.

    I think you simply need to treat the data as a Table and click the dropdown boxes to resort or filter it.

    Or

    to see what I'm think will help.

    Hi Marvin,

    Thanks for your response. Maybe I'm not understanding but that seems to be a way to filter entires, rather than sort them. No?
