Hello Rohini,

Try using the below code :

Dim worksheet,Excel As Object

Dim rRng as Object

Dim Header1 as integer

try

Excel = GetWorkbook(handle,Nothing)

worksheet = GetWorkbook(handle,Nothing).ActiveSheet

rRng = worksheet.Range(Data_StartCell,Data_EndCell)

if HeaderPresent = true then

    Header1=1

else if HeaderPresent = false then

    Header1=2

end if

rRng.Sort(Key1:=worksheet.Range(Order_StartCell,Order_EndCell), Order1:=OrderType,Header:=Header1)

Success = true

catch e as Exception

Success = false

End try

Input Variables Used- handle , Data_StartCell , Data_EndCell, Order_StartCell, Order_EndCell, OrderType, HeaderPresent

Output Variables - Success

Suppose you want have data from A1:E20 column and you need to sort column B only. So below are the inputs which you can use:

Data_StartCell- "A1"

Data_EndCell - "E20"

Order_StartCell- "B1"

Order_EndCell- "B20"

OrderType- 1 (it is of Number type and 1 for Ascending and 2 for Descending)

HeaderPresent- True or False depending you have headers or not

Hope the solution works for you.
