Go to the data menu and choose sort.
Then in the dialogue you will be on a drop down. Choose the first column heading you want to sort by, then tab and choose either assending or decending. Then tab again and choose your next column to sort by, and keep going until you've populated the ones you want. Then hit OK.

I use Excel version 2003.

The sort option is under the data submenu.
I have not done any sorts since I retired. I am rusty but I have some of my old worksheets. 
If you have questions, please post.  I will reply.

Subject: Sorting data in excel 2003



Hello Listers:

You guys are my last resort.

I need to sort a spreadsheet in excel 2003 in different ways, for various
purposes.
The fields are: FirstName; LastName; Primary Phone Number; Email Address; 
Address1; Address2; City; State; Zip; Date Joined.

For various reasons, I need to sort the spreadsheet by LastName, City,
State, Zip, Date Joined.

I have searched the menus thoroughly, without finding the sort function.

I tried using Excel's "Help" function, and not getting any result.

I will be very grateful if someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks in anticipation.

sincerely:

Dave Durber
