You could have an event macro that looks for a change to values in a certain
column and then sorts the data.

But I wouldn't do this. If you make a typing mistake, it could be difficult to
find where that row with the error moved.

Instead, If you're using xl2003 (or higher), you can apply
data|filter|autofilter. There's an option under each arrow that allows you to
sort the filtered range by that field.

If you're using any version of excel, you can use a technique at Debra
Dalgleish's site:

If you're new to macros:

Debra Dalgleish has some notes how to implement macros here:

David McRitchie has an intro to macros:

(General, Regular and Standard modules all describe the same thing.)
