Sorting by DOB (MM/DD/YYY) in Excel (2008)
This post is not specifically relevant to Numbers but, I am trying to sort DOB (MM/DD/YYYY) on Excel, Microsoft 2008 for mac. I would like to sort first by YYYY, then by MM and lastly DD. The DOB is NOT separated by columns; they're all in one column. I am able to do this on Microsoft on a PC but the mac version doesn't seem to have this option. Could anyone please advise on how to sort? The sorting option allows me to sort by MM only (because of the MM/DD/YYYY formatting) in ascending or descending order.
I would prefer not to change the international Language settings in my System Preferences (as I've seen in a couple of forums) but if it's the only way, I'll be fine with that.
I'm currently on a MacBook 2007, running Snow Leopard, OSX 10.6.8.
