To sort alphanumeric data like "P15-033-1" in Excel, first ensure the data is in a single column. Select the column, then go to the "Data" tab and click on "Sort." In the sort dialog, you can choose to sort by the column containing your alphanumeric data, and select either "A to Z" or "Z to A" for the desired order. Excel will sort the data based on the alphanumeric characters, treating numbers and letters appropriately.
