    sorting from previous column (VBA, Excel) in decreasing and increasing order

    Hello,

    I'm trying to sort data in decreasing order from column A in column B using VBA (Excel), so starting with Max value.
    With the code below, no data is written in column B?

    In column C, I will want to write the data of column A in increasing order, so starting with Min value?
    Thank you for your advice!

    The above formulas assume your data is numeric. If it has to be a macro, let me know.
    Hope that helps,
