1.sort table -it'easy
2.from sorted table to select a range of cells until a value from sorted
table is matched.This is the problem.
3.copy selected range in another sheet-it's easy.

hello grigoras:

To perform number 2, here is some sample code. (Assuming that the value
you want to match is in cell D1, and the values you are comparing against
are in Column A, beginning in Row 1.)

Sub findmatch()

'sets up row counter
Dim c As Integer

'intiate counter
c = 1

'beginning of data to look for match
Cells(1, 1).Select

'looks for match
Do Until Cells(c, 1).Value = Cells(1, 4).Value

'increments counter
c = c + 1
Loop

'selects range
Range("A1", Cells(c, 1)).Select

End Sub

I hope that helps. Please post if your question was answered.

Cheers. thechilipino.
