How can I sort a list by already highlighted rows? Since it's a fairly large list(4K)and because these highlighted rows are interspersed with non-highlighted rows, I'd hate to have to individually cut and paste all of them into a seperate sheet. Is there any solution?
Thx, Kev

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
Hello Kev,

Could you give us a more detailed explanation, giving an example? At the moment it doesn't sound doable, but maybe someone here will have a answer or different approach for you.

The loop may be a little overkill if you don't care about the order. Follow Dave's instructions on how to use a user defined function at his "Sort" link.

Here's a simplified function and examples:<pre>
Function Clr(myRng As Range)
Clr = myRng.Interior.ColorIndex
End Function</pre>
Book2
ABCD
16
243
38
4-4142
535
66
736
87
98
10-4142
1143
1235
PreSort
Book2
ABCD
1-4142
2-4142
36
46
57
68
78
835
935
1036
1143
1243
PostSort


Hope you're talking about standard formatting and that this helps.
