Default Sort key

i have the worst time trying to code a sort with the sort key......
usually i can make it work (eventually), but i'd like to understand it
better.
so can somebody explain why this is not working?!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sub userform_initialize()

Set Bldgs = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(2)
Set Temp = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(5)

MyBldgLastRow = Bldgs.Cells(20000, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Set MyBldgs = Temp.Range("a4:a" & MyBldgLastRow)
Set MyFindRange = Bldgs.Range("a4:e" & MyBldgLastRow)

MyFindRange.Sort Key1:=Range("A4:A4"), Order1:=xlAscending,
Header:=xlNone, _
OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom

For Each cell In MyBldgs
cboBldgList.AddItem cell.Value
Next cell

End Sub
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
it worked fine until i added the sort. i've tried making the key range
a4:a5
a4 (only)
a:a

i get the error message "sort method of range class failed"

maybe i should take out the "range" & just make it "a4"???
thanks for the assistance
(fyi everything's declared in a global mod).
