    macro ascending/descending

    Hello to all.
    I ask to help to understand why the macro does not report the value in descending into row 2.
    I am attaching an example.

    The macro works perfectly, but your 'blank' cells are not really blank. So, first, sort using your ascending macro, scroll down to the first 'blank' cell in column C, then delete everything from there down, and your macros will work the way you expect them to.

    Thanks nilem I think it works well.

    Bernie Deitrick i know that empty cells are not quite empty but there is
    the formulas and then for the macro it is as if they were empty.

    Greetings from Italy at all.

    Then just be aware that converting to values removes the formulas permanently.

    Re: macro ascending/descending

    Ah that's why I can not see the formulas
    I thought it was me.
    Then the macro nilem does not work perfectly.

    Re: macro ascending/descending

    The solution depends on what you are doing with the other columns, and whether they are constants or formulas - I think code like this will work for all cases:

    Thanks Bernie,
    I think it's perfect.
    It also works with formulas.
    Tomorrow I try it in my office.
    A greeting and thanks again.

    Bernie curiosity:

    lngR = Application.Evaluate ("SUMPRODUCT((LEN(C1:C15000)>0)*1)")

    Re: macro ascending/descending

    Change it to the column that you are actually sorting on - if that is H:
