It CAN be done! Highlight your column A and put the arrow cursor right at the edge of it. You should be able to drag the whole column to the opposite side of column B. This puts all of A in column C, but you can highlight both columns and move them left -- you end up with A and B switched. Now you can alphabetise the whole thing by what used to be column B. M
