I'd like to sort multiple columns in VBA (Excel 2003). That's not a
problem you'd think, but the columns are not placed next to each other. There are columns in between which may NOT be sorted! Since a simple example says more than words... Take following table: [A] B [C] D [E] +-------+-----------+-------+---------+-------+ 1 | B | =IF(A1... | 12| =C1*... | 75| 2 | D | =IF(A2... | 11| =C2*... | 70| 3 | A | =IF(A3... | 19| =C3*... | 80| 4 | C | =IF(A4... | 20| =C4*... | 40| We want to sort columns A, C and E alphabetically according to the data in column A, but leave B and D alone. This should lead to: [A] B [C] D [E] +-------+-----------+-------+---------+-------+ 1 | A | =IF(A1... | 19| =C1*... | 80| 2 | B | =IF(A2... | 12| =C2*... | 75| 3 | C | =IF(A3... | 20| =C3*... | 40| 4 | D | =IF(A4... | 11| =C4*... | 70| Selecting columns A, C and E without selecting B and D isn't a problem: Range("A1:A4,C1:C4,E1:C4").Select But when I try a sorting construction like shown below, I get an error: Range("A1:A4,C1:C4,E1:C4").Sort Key1:Range("A1"), Order1:xlAscending I'm not sure why though... Anyone knows a way to accomplish what I want? -- mahi |
