Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
Enter the first two entries as actual dates, i.e. the first of the month:
Code:
11/1/2016
12/1/2016
Then select those two cells and drag down as far as you want.

Then change the Custom Format of the column to "mmmm yyyy".
