Step 5 is done by "sub sort". This is where I am getting a compile error "Sub or function not defined". I am new to excel vba, I am not able to narrow down the issue further. Could anyone help me on this issue please? TIA.







This is an outright shot in the dark, but I made these changes on the Sort sub. Does not error and produces a new worksheet each time I run it in a workbook with no data.







The name of the sub is purposefully change, as it produced an error. I presume "sort" is a reserved word for Excel.







Change the sheet names back to suit your workbook.
