Name cells before sort

[Guest]

Hi everyone
I've a long list of clients, all with values. I have to count and sum them
all but first i have to name them all. I'd like, if possible, to do a sort
first and name it all and then put the list back how it was, but i loose the
reference of the names. Any ideas?
Tks in advance
Pedro

Hi Pedro,
Try using a pivot table to summarize your data. For more help see:

Hi
select your entire data range before sorting
