-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Sorting in Excel

I;ve tried clicking on the very top of the column, and the entire column is
highlighted. But I still get "The operation requires that the merged 
cell to be
identically sized. And when that comes up, all the columns are
highlighted. And BTW, I don't know what you mean by TABLE;
I want to alphabetize the first column, which is the only column that
has text rather than numbers.
