Need help.
The following code creates a worksheet from Access, but will not work with a
line added to sort the data. The code is otherwise a well tried and tested.
I need to be able to sort the worksheet, and the Sort Column line below is
tested in Excel and work as desired there. In Access there is an Error 1004,
asking to use single quotes when using the equal sign. I don't know what to
do.

Probably Columns("C:C") should be xlSheet.Columns("C:C")
Same for the DD and AA.
You may also have to add the xlSheet prefix to the xlAscending etc.

In addition you will have problems with the constants such as xlAscending.
You need to convert those to the actual values. In the Immediate window type

? xlAscending

To get the true constant value.

If you wold like the full list of constant values for XL2002 (that is all I
have here at work) then reply back with an e-mail address and I will send it
to you in a form that can be copied and pasted directly into VBA.

Thank you Jaf. Adding the xlSheet. in front of the .columns worked. However,
it will not work if infront of xlascending as well.

Hi Imran,
Re-read what Jim posted.

"You need to convert those to the actual values. In the Immediate window type

? xlAscending

To get the true constant value."
