Hi,

I've created the bit of code below to copy a row of data from 3
worksheets to one worksheet so that the rows are appended to each other
and then finally sorted.

The code works fine but seems to be rather cumbersome. Is there an
easier way of addressing ranges rather than having to create/define
them first? Any advice of my use of the other fuctions would also be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Dan

It didnt' seem to clear.
The code below assumes you want to copy a table in A4:Bnn
from three sheets into a new sheet. In each of th ethree
sheets, the length of the table is not know.
The code adds a new worksheet. It then selects the range
A4:Bnn fron the first named sheets & copies it to the new
worksheet. Then, for te two other sheets, it copies
A4:Bnn to the next available row in the new worksheet.
Finally, the copied cells are sorted.

Hopefully, you'll see the purpose and will be able to
adapt it. Note that it is not necessary to select a range
in order to use it.
