Hello, I’m looking to keep this data in its own cell but in numerical order. In other words, If I have “1999 2001 2004 2003 2000 2002” in A2 I need to have this changed to “1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004” in B2 or whatever depending on how many steps it takes. I was thinking I could put each year into its own column, sort the column and then put it back together but I ran into problems even trying to split the string up. There can be anywhere from 1-20 different years if that matters. Thanks

I found this but it puts each individual digit in order and without spaces. Could it maybe be modified? The string will always consist of 4 digit numbers (Years). Even if each group of four digits could be grouped together and sorted without spaces I could maybe add spaces after sorting. Thanks

Private Function SortCharacters(theString As String) As String
Dim currentChar As String
Dim sourceNum As Integer
Dim destNum As Integer
For sourceNum = 1 To Len(theString)
currentChar = Mid(theString, sourceNum, 1)
If sourceNum = 1 Then
SortCharacters = currentChar
Else
destNum = 1
While destNum <= Len(SortCharacters) And currentChar > Mid(SortCharacters, destNum, 1)
destNum = destNum + 1
Wend
SortCharacters = Left(SortCharacters, destNum - 1) & currentChar & Mid(SortCharacters, destNum)
End If
Next sourceNum
End Function
Private Function SortCharacters(theString As String) As String
Dim currentChar As String
Dim sourceNum As Integer
Dim destNum As Integer
For sourceNum = 1 To Len(theString)
currentChar = Mid(theString, sourceNum, 1)
If sourceNum = 1 Then
SortCharacters = currentChar
Else
destNum = 1
While destNum <= Len(SortCharacters) And currentChar > Mid(SortCharacters, destNum, 1)
destNum = destNum + 1
Wend
SortCharacters = Left(SortCharacters, destNum - 1) & currentChar & Mid(SortCharacters, destNum)
End If
Next sourceNum
End Function

Try this
