I have one column of names that has been entered as "first and last name" as one entry and I would like to sort by the last name (the last word in the column). Some of the entries are simply first and last name (e.g. Jane Doe), some are spouses together (e.g. Frank and Elaine Smith) and some contain middle initials (e.g. John Q. and Amy X. Public).

I'm looking for a way to sort dates from several columns into a new single column (perhaps multiple columns if the entry columns become too numerous). I've included an example. There are currently only 4 columns, but there may be as many as 20 in the future, each with 20 dates under each heading. Any blank cells would be eliminated. If I filled a blank with a new date, that date would be placed into the chronological column. So basically, this would take the date from several different categories and create a single calendar of events.

i want to sort column D acsending, then column C descending. i want to do this using VBA because i cant just format the sheet because another vba macro paste the sheet thier which would rid the formatting.

I want to sort them from highest to lowest in C1:C10 & D1:D10. This meaning the part with the highest number would fall in C1 and its corresponding value in D1 and so on. Is this possible using a formula?
if it is possible to sort a range by a specific value in a cell in a column within that range. The reason I'm asking is that I would like to sort by street name in an address line, ie:
500 Aldavar Rd
32 564 Hughes Cresc
36 Aldavar Rd
14 263 Fairlane Ave
If these are samples in a column, I would like to sort, and have the following "output":
36 Aldavar Rd
500 Aldavar Rd
14 263 Fairlane Ave
32 564 Hughes Cresc
it is NOT critical that "36 Aldavar" appears before "500 Aldavar" in the output.

I have the below small code which auto sorts information in column A & B but I am having trouble trying to get it to sort from row 3 and not sort the first 2 rows. The first row is the column header the second row I want left blank and then sort after that.
Plus at the moment after I enter something into column A it auto sorts itself but what I would really like to do is have it commence the auto sort after I have entered information in column B and pressed "enter". Because at the moment I enter info in column A then it auto sorts itself then I must then find it and then enter the info into column B.

I have a 27R x 19C table (1st row is headings) that I want to sort. The column that I want to sort on (column O) contains a formula that multiplies two values, each of which is obtained by a VLOOKUP formula. The formula in the cell is: VLOOKUP(E3,StrategicImpactTable,2,0) * VLOOKUP(L3,StatuteRegulatoryImpactTable,2,0). Named ranges StrategicImpactTable and StatuteRegulatoryImpactTable each contain two columns, the second of which is a numeric value associated with the text in the first column.
On the first row VLOOKUP(E3,StrategicImpactTable,2,0) evaluates to 3, VLOOKUP(L3,StatuteRegulatoryImpactTable,2,0) evaluates to 2, and the product results in a numeric value of 6. The 26 values in column O are 6, 6, 4, 2, 2, 4, 4, 6, 4, 4, 4, 4, 9, 9, 9, 3, 3, 9, 9, 9, 4, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9.
When I sort the table descending on column O, the table does not sort properly, with no discernable order. Why?
Is there a way to have this sheet which is named "sheet1" sort the names in column A which is named "Name" by the data in column B which is named "Rank" automatically as the data in column B "Rank" changes?

I have data in column C of rows 25 to 45. The data varies in number form.
What i would like to do is have some VBA code that i can place into a macro which will sort the numbers in column C of rows 25 to 45 putting the highest number at the the top (C25). But i need to move the complete row.
I have a look up table on sheet 1, that looks like this table to the right. On sheet 2, I need it to find the table contents in the column CC, then look at a column AA and find all that match it and move all that match this cell in column AA and copy the row it to sheet 3.
Its 300 lines of data, a couple of time of week.
It is a sort of data with a twist.
