Ideally have the names in the first column of your data. Then select the column that has the names in it and the other columns. The active cell should be in the first column. Then go up to "Data" on the toolbar or the Sort and Filter options. You can select to sort alphabetically. If the Names are not in the first column you can use the Advanced sort option and choose it as the column you want to sort on when all of the columns of data are selected.

Then choose the column you would like to sort and choose ascending or descending order. Then choose a different column on your spreadsheet and simply add the bins Navigate to "TOOLS, DATA ANALYSIS" and then select Histogram. Click on the small box to the right for input range. Highlight the column on your spreadsheet containing the data that you choose to be binned. This will turn into your frequency value. After that, highlight the bins column for the bin range. Go to 'OUTPUT OPTIONS' and choose 'NEW WORKSHEET PLY:' and then choose a name for the worksheet. It will be set up with a brand new, titled spreadsheet with 2 columns (bin and frequency). Then you highlight the frequency column of data and go to 'CHART WIZARD' pick column graph. Click on 'SERIES TAB CATEGORY (X) LABELS' to make sure that your x axis is labeled 'BIN.'
