    Recorded macro doesn't seem to provide expected result

    Hi you all,

    Normally I keep trying until I find what's wrong but this time I could use some help.

    On column A, I simply do an A-Z sort that gives the expected result. So I recorded it as a macro.
    In column G is a code that corresponds with column A. When the marcro is executed Column A is sorted but the corresponding value in G stays where it is.
    Clicking the A-Z button works. But when that action is recorded as a macro I get the above quirck.

    Since VBA is not my beef, I don't really know what wrong...

    cheers,


    edit; Doh, Monday morning; This should go into the excel section.

    [MOD EDIT - moved]

    Can you post the code that is not working. Don't forget to use code tags.

    hi Andy,

    I think I got it. There was a formula on a column that changed my expected result. A bit stupid I didn't notice really.
