![]() I have a page on my web site regarding sorting arrays. See http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/SortingArrays.aspx . On that page is a function named QSortInPlace that will sort an array in either ascending or descending order. The code is too lengthy to post here. You can either copy the code off the web page or download the bas module file from http://www.cpearson.com/Zips/modQSortInPlace.zip . If you download the zip file, save it somewhere, unzip it, and then with your workbook open, go to VBA, then to the File menu, choose Import File, and open the unzipped bas file named modQSortInPlace.bas. This will create a new module in your workbook project. Documentation is on the web page and also within the bas file. Once you have the code, you can put the elements in the combobox into an array, call QSortInPlace to sort the array in either ascending or descending order, and then reload the array back into the combobox. In the code, change "ComboBox1" to the name of your combobox. Dim Arr() As String Dim N As Long With Me.ComboBox1 ReDim Arr(0 To .ListCount - 1) For N = 0 To .ListCount - 1 Arr(N) = .List(N) Next N QSortInPlace InputArray:=Arr, _ Descending:=False, CompareMode:=vbTextCompare .Clear .List = Arr End With Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft Most Valuable Professional Excel Product Group, 1998 - 2009 Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com (email on web site) On Fri, 4 Sep 2009 10:45:02 -0700, Ken Warthen wrote: I have a combobox on an Excel 2007 userform to which I'd like to add the elements of a worksheet range in a sorted order. There may be anywhere from several hundred to a few thousand items. I'm able to add the items by iterating through the named range, but users have now requested that the elements be displayed in alpha or numeric order. I've looked around and can't find any relatively simple way to do this. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Ken |
