But I think your point is clear - you don't want to merely use your sorted input data for a task and then reuse the unsorted version later. You don't want to just sort the output data either. You need to sort the input data for a task, then "unsort" the output data such that the each element of the output data is in the same position as the corresponding element in the original unsorted input data.
I don't think that's quite what was meant.
The OP agreed with me. I consider that definitive.
If the original list was sorted by a column
The OP explained that it wasn't, and that it had no columns.
Did all that happen after the post i responded to?
It happened a little under three hours before you posted your response, inbetween the post you responded to and your response.
