Ideally have the names in the first column of your data. Then select the column that has the names in it and the other columns. The active cell should be in the first column.

If the Names are not in the first column you can use the Advanced sort option and choose it as the column you want to sort on when all of the columns of data are selected.

How can you arrange text into multiple columns?
That depends on the nature of the text and what way you want it to be in columns. If it is just a large block of text that you want into newspaper-styled columns, then word processors and desktop publishers have the facility to do that. If you want text that is data, like names and addresses etc. and you want to break the data up so that all the names are in a column and the addresses are in columns, then you do something different. You separate the components on a line with commas and put each new set of data on a new line. Then it can be imported into a database or spreadsheet and the data will be split into columns based where the commas are.
How many columns of data can you sort using the Sort dialog box?
In Excel, you can sort up to 256 columns of data using the Sort dialog box. However, for practical purposes, sorting is typically done on a smaller number of columns, often one or two, to maintain clarity and organization in the data. The Sort dialog allows you to specify multiple levels of sorting, enabling you to prioritize how each column is sorted.
