If in doubt, record a macro and inspect the entrails!

Here is an INDEX to all the procedures.

You will probably need one copy of my GLOBAL DECLARATIONS.

Public Function SortRedimArray(strList() As String, ByVal lLbound As Long, ByVal lUbound As Long, ByVal boolCaseSensitive As Boolean, intColumn As Integer)
' December 3rd 2000 Chris Greaves Implemented a Column key (hence qCsort)
' In this sort the array is assumed to have been REDIMensioned, i.e. 2nd index is row.
    Dim strTemp As String
'Procs    Dim strBuffer() As String
    Dim lngCurLow As Long
    Dim lngCurHigh As Long
    Dim lngCurMidpoint As Long
    lngCurLow = lLbound ' Start current low and high at actual low/high
    lngCurHigh = lUbound
    If lUbound <= lLbound Then Exit Function ' Error!
    lngCurMidpoint = (lLbound + lUbound) \ 2 ' Find the approx midpoint of the array
    strTemp = MyUCase(strList(intColumn, lngCurMidpoint), boolCaseSensitive) ' Pick as a starting point (we are making
    ' an assumption that the data *might* be in semi-sorted order already!

        Loop
        Do While strTemp < MyUCase(strList(intColumn, lngCurHigh), boolCaseSensitive)
