Default Range Selection

I have multiple sheets having varying rows of data. I need to select all
data in each sheet for sorting without click and drag, perhaps for a macro.
Any suggestions? I am stumped!

I'm not clear exactly on what you're trying to do, however, to quickly select
a proper list of data, start by selecting the upper left most cell in the
list then press Ctrl+Shift+(Right Arrow), then Ctrl+Shift+(Down Arrow).

Does that work?

Sorry, this does not accomplish what I need. I need to select the entire
range within the sheet that contains data. Sort of like the "select all"
command in some programs. Any suggestions? Anyone?

You can click on the "select all" button--it's to the left of the column headers
and above the row headers.

Or hit ctrl-a (depending on your version of excel and what is selected, you may
have to hit it a couple of times)
