[ExcelVBA] Re: Surname to binary ?

 

DOH! Of course, I do this.

List the names as you like in one column.

Assign a number in the next/another column from 1 to whatever to each name in the list.

This allows sorting by other columns and returning to your original arrangement by sorting the number column.
