Ascending sorting in Excel is a commonly used way of data collation, which can arrange data in order from smallest to largest. Here are the detailed step-by-step instructions:
Open the Excel worksheet and select the data columns that you want to sort.
Find the "Sort" feature in the "Data" option of the menu bar and tap on it.
In the Sort dialog box that appears, select the Ascending option.
If you need to sort by multiple fields, you can select the first field in Primary Keywords, then select the second field in Secondary Keywords, and so on.
Select the data column to be sorted in the "Sort by" section, and then click the "OK" button.
After completing the above steps, Excel will automatically sort the data in ascending order according to the selected field and sorting method. It should be noted that if the data contains text type data, Excel will sort it alphabetically, not the number size. If you need to sort by number size, you need to convert the data of the text type to the number type.
In addition, if you need to do custom sorting of data, you can check the "Data region contains headers" option in the Sort dialog box, so that Excel will ignore the header rows for sorting. If you need to filter the data or hide some rows, you can tick the option of "Data range contains filtered cells" in the Sort dialog box.
In short, Excel's ascending sorting function is very useful to help us quickly organize our data and find patterns and trends in it.
