I am trying to sort an Excel worksheet that contains (among other things)
columns for:
name
street number
street name
unit number
I am sorting on the unit number first, then the street number and finally
the street name to group the streets and put all the addresses for that
street in order.
However, the unit numbers look like this:
# 1
# 2
# 3
# 4
# 5
# 7
# 8
# 10
# 12
# 13
# 14
# 15
# 16
# 9
So that unit # 9 appears at the end of this sorted list instead of coming
between # 8 and # 10.
The only way I can think of to correct this would be to strip out the '#'
and the space, sort the spreadsheet and then add the '#' and space back in.
Is there some other way to do that?
And, if that is what I need to do, what would be an efficient way to remove
the '# ' and then add it back in front of the unit number? There are some
addresses that do not have unit numbers.
Thanks,
Ken Loomis
