How do I link all the items in a single row?

[Guest]

I want to link all the items in a single row, for multiple rows, so i can
sort by first name, last name or other properties without separating the
properties. For example, first name, last name and phone number.

You want all of that information combined in one cell but want to be able to
sort by any of them? Not sure if you can do that. How do you have your data
set up presently?

I dont want them in a single cell, just in a single row. For example, i have
the first names in the A column, last names in B, and the phone numbers in C.
I want to be able to sort the names in alphabetical order, by first or last,
without giving people the wrong last names or numbers.

Make sure you hilight all of the data you want sorted before doing the sort.
for example, if you just highlight the first name column it will sort only
the 1st names and the rest of your data will be out of order. If you
highlight all of your data then do the sort the proper data will stay where
you want it. (as in the proper phone number will stay with the proper names)

Just select all columns before you start sorting.

No problem. Select your range of cells (or even just one cell in the range
if it is contiguous, & separated from other populated cells), then
Data/ Sort/ first by column A/ then by column B/ then by ... etc.
