In google sheets I have this string:
salmon,fries,peas,coleslaw,onion,garlic,chicken,pancetta,creme fraiche,onion,garlic,chicken,pancetta,creme fraiche,onion,garlic,chicken,pancetta,creme fraiche,gf pizza,gf pizza,pepperoni pizzaI would like to split it by the , character, sort it and textjoin the result.
The overall function I'm working with is this:
=textjoin(",", true, sort(split(textjoin(",",true,$D$2:$D$22), ","), 1, true))So it looks to me like the sort function call is not working, but obviously the input to it is not a range of cells but a list (?) of strings produced by splitting a combination of strings.
The inner-most textjoin is required because the cells being joined contain lists of strings separated by , characters. I am trying to sort every string from every cell in one large list.
