I want to sum the integer elements from row 2 to row 9 inclusive, then
display it in a cell a couple rows below the last element, say row 14.
The trick though, is I am iterating through each column in the worksheet.

Sub SortEachColumn()
Range("A14") = "Best 8 Marks"
Range("A15") = "Total Possible"
Range("A16") = "Total Mark"
lc = cells(2, "iv").End(xlToLeft).Column
For i = 2 To lc
lr = cells(Rows.Count, i).End(xlUp).Row
Next i
End Sub

Notice in line 6, where it goes to the end (End(xlUp)), that is too far. I
only want from row 2 to row 9 inclusive, and then display the sum in row 14
of that column

It appears it is always off one. Will it work to add this line below:
lr = cells(Rows.Count, i).End(xlUp).Row
lr = lr -1 (Added line)
It is a little difficult to see what you are trying to achieve, but I think
it is a set of sub totals below the data.

I don't think that is what I am looking for.
I have 200+ columns of data and each column has data in rows 1-12 inclusive.
I want to go through each column (starting from column B), and go to the end
of the worksheet (coumn IV). While in each column, I sort the data
descending.
I already have the function to sort descending and the for loop to go over
each column.
The problem for me is I can't figure out how to do the next part. On cell
(row) 14 of each column, I want to sum the elements from row 2 to row 9
inlcusive, and put that sum in cell 14 of that column. In (row) cell 15,
I want to put 80 in the cell of each column. In (row) cell 16, I want to
divide cell 14 but cell 15, and put that in cell 16 of that column.

Here is what I have so far:
Sub SortEachColumn()
Range("A14") = "Best 8 Marks"
Range("A15") = "Total Possible"
Range("A16") = "Total Mark"
lc = Cells(1, "iv").End(xlToLeft).Column
For i = 2 To lc 'column 2
to the last column
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, i).End(xlUp).Row
'sorts the column descending
Range(Cells(2, i), Cells(lr, i)).Sort key1:=Cells(2, i),
Order1:=xlDescending
'This is where I am stuck and need someone's help


Next i
End Sub
