No, it is possible to sort on more than one column, which is used for sorting things within groups, like firstnames with surnames, or sales within months.
If you only have a small amount of data, then it could be stored in a single column if appropriate.

It would use the data in the column as the basis for the sorting and sort the rest of the data.
In Excel, data can only be sorted by a single column when using the "Sort" feature from the Data tab without selecting the "Sort by" options for multiple columns. This is typically the case when you're sorting a simple list or table where you focus on one specific column's values. If you need a more complex sorting arrangement, you would need to use the "Custom Sort" option, which allows for sorting by multiple columns.
One limitation of a lookup function, such as VLOOKUP in Excel, is that it can only search for values in the leftmost column of the specified range and return data from columns to the right. This restricts its flexibility, as it cannot retrieve data from columns to the left of the lookup column. Additionally, VLOOKUP requires the data to be sorted for approximate matches, which can lead to errors if the data isn't sorted correctly.
It depends on what kind of program the data has been stored on. If on a spreadsheet, you would use a separate column for dates, and sort on this column. (Remembering to include the whole of the data, or only the date column would be sorted, leaving the rest of the data out of position.)
column constraint is for a single column. table constraint is for an entire table.
Select the columns as normal and use the sort icon, or command on the Data menu to sort them. If you have more than one column selected, the column in which the active cell is will be used to sort. If you want to sort on a number of combinations, like surname and then firstname, that can be done through the data menu. Blank cells will be sorted to the end and the rest of the data will be sorted as usual.
it can be sorted by files kamran :)
it makes you pooop out nipples
Before subtotals can be inserted in a data range, the data must be organized in a tabular format with headings for each column. Additionally, the data should not contain any blank rows or columns within the range. It's also important that the data is sorted by the column(s) on which the subtotals will be calculated to ensure accurate grouping.
No, it can be sorted either in ascending or descending order.
