Is there a way to set the data range for a sort field range using a variable to find the last column and last row? I can set the variable for the last row, but when I try to use the cell property to set the range using variables for both last row and last column, the sort does not work. I have similar problems with other functions like setting print ranges.
Thanks,

Mike

Code:
Sub Sort_Report1()
    Dim rRow As Long
    Dim nCol As Integer
    
 With Worksheets("Report1")
    rRow = .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row    'Finds last data row
    nCol = .Cells(1, 255).End(xlToLeft).Column
    
 If rRow > 1 Then
    'Sort Key:  Date,Task Code
    Worksheets("Report1").Range("A1:H" & rRow).Sort Key1:=Range("G1"), Key2:=Range("H1"), Order2:=xlAscending, Key3:=Range("A1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes
    
End If
End With
End Sub

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest

How is the code not working?

By the way I don't see where in the posted code you are using variables for row and column.

Hi,

did you try
Code:
Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(rRow, nCol))
instead of Range("A1:H" & rRow) ?

kind regards,
Erik
