Default sorting a large selection

Selection.Sort Key1:=selection(1), Order:=xlAscending

Excel will allow you to specify 3 key columns at a time. If you need more,
then you need to work for the lowest level of significance up to the highest
level of significance in groups of 3.

You can get most of this by Turning on the macro recorder and doing it
manually once. then generalize the code.

hello, this is my first time posting so excuse me if i do anythign
wrong

i would like some help on a script for sorting a large selection of
numerical data in ascending order

the range of the selection would be the whole column (i.e. i would
click the A if i wanted to sort the A column, but the script should
also work for sorting out other columns)

for example

i have data that is

10/12312/123312/231/1232
24/12312/123312/231/1230
46/12312/123312/231/1233
57/12312/123312/231/1235
99/12312/123312/231/1234
13210/12312/123312/231/121223

appreciate the help
