I have a column of mixed data with no delimiters that I need to sort.
want the data to sort so that it is in this order: 1A, 2A, 3A....10A
11A...etc.
I know Excel by default will not sort this correctly in text or numbe
format because it looks at the number of characters---I end up wit
10A, 11A, 12A.....1A, 2A etc.
I am wondering if there is any way to sort it using a formul
(preferably) or VBA (I am a beginner with VBA).
I have tried using a concatenate formula to add a zero to the front o
1A through 9A, then copying this as a value back to the column , the
sorting and it works correctly. 01A, 02A, 03A....10A, 11A...etc.
However, 1) that is cumbersome, and 2)I don't really want the 0 at th
front of the data. Any suggestions? I am sure I must be missin
something obvious.
Thank you
