Slight alteration to code to work only on prefixed sheets

[james 35]

Hi guys, below is a code that sorts the whole work book based on a cell reference in this case it is a cell containing day, date and time. It works very well however I would like it only to sort a range of sheets with the prefix PP* and not alter the structure of the whole work book...All PP* sheets are located between Sheets "Works" and "TEMP"

Could anyone advise please??

Thanks

Half and half Arlu !

I am adding an If worksheet named like PP* Condition ...

I'll post the finished item up as soon as complete alond with the old one in the same thread....

TBF I have to add a sort sheets according to depot also alonng with a tab colour change per depot and this has to be done by creating 3 lists 1 for each depot with a load of locations to be referenced so as to allocate the PP* sheet to a depot, and the, sort those sheets with the same tab colours using the macro above so I'll end up altering it again any way lol....


It would be nice if people could make up their minds

HI James,
I think this approach should work (but can't test), using the Work and TEMP bounds, rather than the sheet prefix:

These two lines appear twice:

They specify the range of sheets to sort (from 1 to shtlast, where shtlast is = Sheets.Count)

So to adjust the upper range, try changing the line:

to:

The to adjust the start range:

to:

(make the equivalent of this adjustment three more times)

We want it to start 1 sheet after Works and end 1 sheet before TEMP. By puttin gthe wrong sheet name in, I had it starting after TEMP and ending before TEMP!
