Hi i need to sort sheet2 rows by Id number in column D from Sheet1 order. So whatever order sheet1 is in by id number I need sheet2 to look the same. The reason why I cant sort sheet1 id numbers by numbers then sheet2 is because. The order that Sheet1 is in I need it in the same order on sheet2 whole row.

Now need sheet2 to look the same. Which you can see its not. If the numbers are the same its fine as long as it sorts the whole row by number to be exact from sheet1. Any help would be great.

Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Sort by date Sort by votes
You could put this in col E of sheet 2
=MATCH(D2,sheet1!D$2:D$23,0)

and then sort on that

Hi so this didn't work it was pulling from a different line and not returning the right numbers. I am trying to sort the whole row on sheet2 to match sheet1 the number order that sheet1 has in Column D. The match formula pulls in some random numbers.
