Require assist with VBA semantic regarding worksheet selection
Hello,
I have the following subroutine for sorting a table: Sheets("Quotes").Range("A5:AB500").Sort Key1:=Range("A5"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, _ OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _ DataOption1:=xlSortNormal This works fine when I the worksheet in question "Quotes" is the active worksheet. However, when I invoke this macro while another worksheet is open, I get an error. Any assist with this is greatly appreciated. Thanks Jeff |
