You can copy and paste values to another workbook and sort but it'll kill almost all the useful information. We've got these massive docs that reference numerous tabs and populate parent+children lines. It's an absolute mess and takes 6 months of training, I look at it as job security lol

Surely it would be cheaper to hire a dev for 6 months to put it into a proper database.
