Default Excel sorting in VBScript

Not tested, but try

Set objRange = objExcel.Range(Chr(64+objExcel.column())&"4",
Chr(64+objExcel.column())&row ).Select
Set objRange2 = objExcel.Range(Chr(64+objExcel.column())&"4")
objRange.Sort objRange2,,,,,,,1

I'm having trouble with Excel sorting in a VBScript. I have a number of
cells containing data, starting at row 4. I'm trying to sort each column
from row 4 through to the end using the following code:

Set objRange = objExcel.Range(Chr(64+column)+"4",

Chr(64+column)&row ).Select
Set objRange2 = objExcel.Range(Chr(64+column)+"4")
objRange.Sort objRange2,,,,,,,1

objRange is my range, objRange2 is the first cell of the column I wish to
sort.

I also tried:

objRange.Sort objRange,,,,,,,1

The sort method does not work in VBScript, nor do a large number of
variations of it! I know from a lot of reading that some Excel

functionality
isn't exposed too well in VBScript...

However, the following works for the entire column, using a header row:

Set objRange = objExcel.ActiveCell.EntireColumn
objRange.Sort objRange,,,,,,,1

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
