I am trying to make this sort work. I copied it from this forum. I am new
to arrays. I am not sure I am approaching this correctly but I wanted to see
it work so I input data on a worksheet from I7 to J12. Col I is alpha and J
is numeric. When it runs it will return an error at:

X = SortArray((L + R) / 2, col)

the errors says "Subscript out of range"

How do I fix this? Is it saying the SortArray is not setup?


Thank you,

Steven

For starters try this instead:

Sub aaTesterSort()

Dim vArr()
Dim rng As Range
Dim bAscending As Boolean

Set rng = Range(Cells(1), Cells(13, 2))
vArr = rng.Value
bAscending = False

QuickSort vArr, 2, LBound(vArr), UBound(vArr), bAscending

' vArr now holds a sorted verion of itself
Range(Cells(4), Cells(13, 5)) = vArr

End Sub

Sub QuickSort(SortArray() As Variant, _
col As Long, _
L As Long, _
R As Long, _
bAscending As Boolean)

Steven,

where do you get the 5 from?
QuickSort vArr, 5, LBound(vArr, 1), UBound(vArr, 1), bAscending
Obviously vArr is a two-dimenional array. It should contain the cell
values of 6 rows and 2 columns. (I7 to J12)
5 is no valid column number for this array, so you get "Subscript out of
range".
If you want to sort alphabetically this should do it:
QuickSort vArr, LBound(vArr, 2), LBound(vArr, 1), _
UBound(vArr, 1), bAscending
because LBound(vArr, 2) will give you the col number of the first column (I)

Helmut.

.

You will find that declaring all the variables, particularly passing the
array
as a real array: SortArray() As Variant
(note the 2 brackets here) makes the Quicksort a lot faster.
