Number Sorting is not working
Hello All, In the attached sheet , I am not able to sort Column B from low to hight in 5026ADDLoad(sorting)tab. It used to work. Thanks, Sam

SamFares You have used the MID function. That makes everything text. And your column B is sorted as text.
Use this in stead:
=VALUE(MID([@Mark],2,3))

Most probably it was set this option on sorting
