how do i keep data together by row while sorting by column?

[Guest]

I need to sort my list alphabetically while making sure that the related data
entered in the remaining columns remain attached to the respective rows.

Are you using Access? Access has fields and records, not rows and columns.
If you sort a table or a query or a report by a particular field, the
records will stay together. In other words, sorting your report by last
name will not cause the first names to suddenly not match up with the
correct last name.

Is this a Microsoft Access question? It sounds like an Excel question.

Please note that this newsgroup is for Microsoft Access, a database

To have reasonable chance of your question being answer, you should *always*
post the name of the software (and version / latest service patch) you are
using. You should also include the OS details ...
