I query the user via a userform to select the heading (column) they want to
sort on. The userform returns a column. I need to sort everything from row
11 down based on the column selected. I have no problem selecting the cells
from A11 to the end, but I don't know the code to perform the sort. Will
somebody please help?

this is my code for the selecting the range that needs to be sorted
x = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Range("A11", "AA" & x).Select

If the user selects "ORDER NUMBER" from the user form (column y), how do I
sort my range on column y?

This is a simple example that may help you.

Sub a()
Dim Key As String
Dim SortCell As Range
Key = "HeaderX"
Set SortCell = Range("A1:E1").Find(Key)
Range("A1:E8").Sort Key1:=SortCell, Header:=xlYes
End Sub

Here I have a small database in the range A1 to E8. Row 1 has the
column/field headers and I know that the field I want to sort by is headed
by "HeaderX". First I find the cell containing HeaderX and set the range
variable SortCell to it. Then I use that to set the first sort key in doing
the sort.
