Hello All,

I have the following code that works really well. What I would like to do though, is have a list on a worksheet where people can add their usernames and become part of the AdminAccess group. In the italicized line, I would like to use variables to pull the cell value from that sheet/column (Sheets("Lists").Range("F1").Value (through F25 Value)). When I attempted to Dim some set of variables and put them in there I can't get it to work. Any ideas? I have already tried the variable individually both with and without the "" and I tried using an array() which also didn't work.


Code:
    Login = Environ("UserName") 'Environ("UserName") grabs the login name attached to your profile on your computer

[I]    AdminAccess = InStr("burnsjas-mslinde-jodruin", Login) > 0[/I]

    If AdminAccess Then
        Columns("K:K").Select
        ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Data").Sort.SortFields.Clear
        ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Data").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range("K1"), _
            SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
        With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Data").Sort
            .SetRange Range("A2:M1000")
            .Header = xlNo
            .MatchCase = False
            .Orientation = xlTopToBottom
            .SortMethod = xlPinYin
            .Apply
        End With
    End If
