【英文】Excel排序时报错

Preface

Error occurred during Excel sorting: “To perform this operation, all cells must be of the same size.”

Reason

  • In each row, some cells are merged with 2 columns while others are merged with 3 columns. Therefore, the cell sizes are different.

Problem-solving

  1. Make a copy of the file for backup.
  2. Clear all formats, which will unmerge all cells.
  3. Select the area to be sorted and sort it as needed.
  4. Copy the unsorted area from the backup file.
  5. Select the sorted area, perform a selective paste, and only paste formats to restore the formats.

Completion
