Organising information in date order

How do you select and organise information into ascending date order?

RE: Organising information in date order

Hi Krystle

Thank you for your question.

You would first need to ensure that:

1. All your dates were in one column
2. The column containing the dates had a heading at the top (e.g. Date) which has been bolded.
3. All dates are in the same format.
4. There are no blank rows within the list of dates.

Then you can select any of the cells that contain a date, then click the Sort Ascending button on the standard toolbar (button with A and Z on it).

Excel tip:

Using basic functions without doing formulas

When you highlight figures Autocalc tells you the total in the bottom right of the screen, but if you right click on the sum it will give you some basic functions. The functions are Min, Max, Average, Sum, Count, and Count Nums.
