Mr. Excel's Tip of the Month
Perform a Custom Sort in Excel
I used to work for a company where all of the reports had to be in East - Central - West sequence. Using a standard sort, there is no good way to do this in Excel. An ascending sort would put Central first and a descending sort would put West first. I ended up spending a lot of time cutting and pasting the various sections of the report into the proper order. Had I known this trick for a custom sort, the problem would have been easy.

To allow a custom sort, do a little bit of advance work.

  • Go to a blank spreadsheet and type your list in the proper order going down column A.
  • Highlight this range of cells
  • From the menu, select Tools - Options
  • On the Custom List tab, choose the Import button. This will add a custom list called East, Central, West to your copy of Excel.



To perform a custom sort, you must use the Sort dialog instead of the AZ button on the toolbar. In the Sort dialog, choose the Options button. In the Sort Options dialog, choose your custom list from the dropdown for First Key Sort Order.
