Thoughts?
 

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).
yeah I know it looks already sorted, it was, manually. I posted the wrong look. Still would like this to be done automatically

Ok, how would I do that? lol I know nothing about Macros and what they can do. Admittedly I just read a little about the subject.

Activate the question mark (the ? icon) on the ribbon and search for "macro recorder" in the search dialog. That provides enough information.

1. What should trigger a re-sort?

2. Is this a formal Excel Table (created perhaps via Insert -> Table)? If so, what is the name of the table?

3. Which columns are formulas and which are manually entered?

4. Is there anything in column AK or AV?
- If there is, should those columns be excluded from the sort?
