'Trick' to restore original sort order after data modified?
Had large excel file. Sorted to combine like type part #. Updated pricing,
would like to restore back to original list order? Normally insert a new column and sequentially number. Use this filled sequential field to go back to original order. Any tool in new excel that replaces the need to do this?

Nope... Keep adding in your sequence number.

Yes, reload the file without saving ;-)

If your original data had been sorted, and you knew the conditions of the
sort, you could just repeat them.........but personally, I always do what you do as soon as I get a new database to fool with.....just add a column and sequentially number it so I can return to the original sort at any time.........a macro might help if you do it a lot.
