macro to alphabetize selected cells

[viper]

I've tried recording a macro to see if I can get this without asking, I can get it to do some of the cells but not all of them. This is what I'm working on. I have a spreadsheet with employee names in merged Cells(A11:B22)(A11:B11) are merged and contain a name, then in column and cell (C11) I have a salary for that name. I've tried to select all cells (A11:C22) so that when they are alphabetized the salary will stay with name it goes with, but I get error saying that merged cells must be the same size. How can I alphabetize all the names along with their salary. I am also wanting to allow for the input of new names then re-alphabetizing for the new names as well. So if I have names A through W already alphabetized and I will be using a userform to input the new name and salary(which I know the code to use to insert the new row) but then if the name is C after it is inserted then all the names will need to be alphabetized for the new entry. Any ideas?

I recommend you unmerge the cells if possible and separate the first and last names. (Use Data/Text to Columns) Create a UserForm with 3 text boxes and 2 command buttons. The following code will put the last name in column A starting in row 3, the first name in column B (row 3)and the salary in column C (also row 3). You must have headings at least in rows 1 and 2 for this to work.

Public Sub Show()
UserForm1.Show

End Sub

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Range("B1").Select
Range("B1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select
ActiveCell.Value = TextBox1
Range("A1").Select
Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select
ActiveCell.Value = TextBox2
Range("C1").Select
Range("C1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select
ActiveCell.Value = TextBox3
End Sub

To unload the user form use this.

Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Unload Me
End Sub

To sort the selection down to row 40 use this.

Sub Macro1()
' Macro1 Macro
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Range("A3:C40").Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("A3"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, _
OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom
Range("F1").Select
End Sub

Good luck
