Can any one tell me how to sort by date in ms excell when i am trying to sort in date format ex:dd/mm/yy then date wise only changed but month not changed in order
1. Select the data in column for sorting. 2. Go to Data>Sort and select the column for starting.
It will sort the date format also.
I don't understand about month wise..even the month also includes some date only. Like if u right March 09, it will take 31.3.09 or if u right Feb,09 then it wil take it as 28.2.09. and if u sort it in ascending order, then the date of 28.2.09 will preeeced 31.3.09.

Thanku but not workout if dates are 04/01/2009 01/05/2009 03/02/2009 in above case when iam sort : the result is as below 01/05/2009 03/02/2009 04/01/2009
be sure that the format of all the dates are same.. dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy. i.e 4/1/2009 shud be 4th Jan 1/5/2009 shud be 1st May 3/2/2009 shuid be 3rd feb.
or if other format is using, then 4/1/2009 shud be 1st April 1/5/2009 shud be 5th Jan 3/2/2009 shud be 2nd March..
BE ENSURE ALL ARE RESPRESENTING SAME FORMAT. IF DIFFERENT FORMAT FOR DIFF DATES..IT WILL NOT WORK.
