    Variable Problem.

    Hi folks,

    I need a help for my top problem. I spend a lot of time but I can't find a
    solution for it. The following is my sample of my code. I want to sort the
    value of str in ascending and the max value of str. Any help will be
    appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Tim.


    Example:

    Dim str As String

    str = ("9, 5, 8, 3, 1, 6")

    MsgBox str

    Here's one way, if you have VBA6 or later:

    =================================
    Option Explicit

    Sub foo()
    Dim str As String
    Dim TempArray As Variant, Temp As Variant
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim NoExchanges As Integer

    str = ("9, 5, 8, 3, 1, 6")
    TempArray = Split(str, ", ")

    ' Loop until no more "exchanges" are made.
    Do
    NoExchanges = True

    ' Loop through each element in the array.
    For i = 0 To UBound(TempArray) - 1

    ' If the element is greater than the element
    ' following it, exchange the two elements.
    If TempArray(i) > TempArray(i + 1) Then
    NoExchanges = False
    Temp = TempArray(i)
    TempArray(i) = TempArray(i + 1)
    TempArray(i + 1) = Temp
    End If
    Next i
    Loop While Not (NoExchanges)

    str = Join(TempArray, ", ")


    MsgBox (str & vbLf & "Max Value: " & TempArray(UBound(TempArray)))
    End Sub
    ===============================

    Hi Ron,

    Thank you very much for your code. I have another question regarding the
    code. How to sort the alphabet and date? Please help.

    For example:

    str = ("12/1/06, 12/15/05, 1/1/05, 10/10/05")

    or

    str = ("Peter Smith, John betz, John bocco")

    Thanks in advance.

    Tim.

    What was the problem with the sort you obtained when you tried those values for
    str?

    Re: Variable Problem.

    Hi Ron,

    When I ran the code with the following str (date), I got the result like
    this: 1/1/05, 10/10/05, 12/1/06, 12/15/05 Max Value: 12/15/05. I am
    expecting 12/1/06 is the last value but it is not.

    str = ("12/1/06, 12/15/05, 1/1/05, 10/10/05")

    Please help.

    Thanks in advance.

    Tim.
