Question : Sort by only last digit in a column in excel

I have a large worksheet with employees seniority dates and other info.

We have multiple people with the same seniority date. The tiebreaker then becomes the last digit of their SS number.

Example:

Sen Date      Last 4 SS

01/05/98      2529      
01/05/98      8394            
01/05/98      0078

I need to sort by the seniority date 1st and then by the last digit of the 2nd column in ascending order.

is thsi possible?      

Answer : Sort by only last digit in a column in excel

You might consider creating a "tie-breaker" column containing a formula like:
=RIGHT(B2,1)           where B2 is the social security number

You could then include the tie-breaker column in your sort hierarchy (you get up to three fields you can sort by)
