Call me dumb but i sorted it eventually. It came in a flas of inspiration.
I had (lets say) two cloumns, one with names and one with a formulae to
return a value from earlier in the workbook. When i was sorting them to show
highest to lowest the second column was loosing it's data. To counteratct
this i just locked the formulae like this cell b =p$14 for example.
