Oops, again I explained it badly. It is precisely the other way
around.

That is suppose
Original table This 1
 Book  2
 Cesar 3

Now I mark the first column and order it alphabetically I obtain

 Book  1
 Cesar 2
 This  3
But want I want is this, Although I only marked the first column. Book 2
 Cesar 3
 This  1
Now you point out that in order to achieve this, I should hightlight
all the   relevant columns.  Thats  right.  But I   want to have  some
protecting. That  is also I  only mark one  column and sort the column
all the others get sorted as well.
What I want is sort of database behaviour for the sheet. Is this possible, maybe there exists a macro?

I don't follow understand what is wrong with selecting both column and hitting sort, you get the result. I suppose you could write a macro that would select the rest of the colummns and sort, then you would only have to select one.
