Hi Kasumi

Thank you for your question.

Before you do this, it is a good idea to make sure your headings are formatted in bold so that Excel can tell that they are the headings and not part of the data to be sorted.

Select any cell (with data in it) under the heading that you wish to sort by, then you can use the Sort Ascending or Sort Descending buttons (they have A and Z on them) to sort in either ascending or descending order.
