I have a single dimension array that I would like sorted, and I am just
drawing a blank.
Thanks, folks.

What have you tried?

This looks like a school assignment and nobody will help you along
with that. Some may point you in the right direction if you prove
that you're actually trying and heading in the wrong direction, but
none will do it for you.

Cheers,
Jason Lepack

Google may name, you'll see I'm not in school. I'm at work, and have been
thinking about it all weekend. Like I said, I'm drawing a blank.
Please, if you're not going to help, don't reply. Keep it professional.

Fair enough.

More information is still required. People here are more than willing
to help but you need to provide a starting point. Why do you need an
array, how is the array declared, is this in VBA or are you looking a
spreadsheet formula?

Please be professional and give an accurate description of the problem
with as much detail as possible so that a solution can be given.

Cheers,
Jason Lepack

Googling Sorting Arrays in Excel would give you some help. One that
works for me for many occasions is

Sub QuickSort(VA_array, Optional V_Low1, Optional V_high1)

On Error Resume Next

'Dimension variables
Dim V_Low2, V_high2, V_loop As Integer
Dim V_val1, V_val2 As Variant

'If first time, get the size of the array to sort
If IsMissing(V_Low1) Then
V_Low1 = LBound(VA_array, 1)
End If

If IsMissing(V_high1) Then
V_high1 = UBound(VA_array, 1)
End If

'Set new extremes to old extremes
V_Low2 = V_Low1
V_high2 = V_high1

'Get value of array item in middle of new extremes
V_val1 = VA_array((V_Low1 + V_high1) / 2)

'Loop for all the items in the array between the extremes
While (V_Low2 <= V_high2)

'Find the first item that is greater than the mid-point item
While (VA_array(V_Low2) < V_val1 And V_Low2 < V_high1)
V_Low2 = V_Low2 + 1
Wend

'Find the last item that is less than the mid-point item
While (VA_array(V_high2) > V_val1 And V_high2 > V_Low1)
V_high2 = V_high2 - 1
Wend

'If the new 'greater' item comes before the new 'less' item, swap them
If (V_Low2 <= V_high2) Then
V_val2 = VA_array(V_Low2)
VA_array(V_Low2) = VA_array(V_high2)
VA_array(V_high2) = V_val2

'Advance the pointers to the next item
V_Low2 = V_Low2 + 1
V_high2 = V_high2 - 1
End If
Wend

'Iterate to sort the lower half of the extremes
If (V_high2 > V_Low1) Then Call QuickSort(VA_array, V_Low1, V_high2)

'Iterate to sort the upper half of the extremes
If (V_Low2 < V_high1) Then Call QuickSort(VA_array, V_Low2, V_high1)

End Sub

Does this work for you?
Sub SortEachColumn()
Dim LastCol As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim n As Long
LastCol = Cells(1, Columns.count).End(xlToLeft).Column
For n = 1 To LastCol
LastRow = Cells(Rows.count, n).End(xlUp).Row
Range(Cells(1, n), Cells(LastRow, n)).Sort _
key1:=Cells(1, n), order1:=xlAscending
Next n
End Sub

If not, perhaps this will do it:
=INDEX(A:A,LOOKUP(2,1/($A$1:$A$65535<>""),ROW($A$1:$A$65535))-ROWS(B$1:B1)+1)

We're in the Excel.Programming group, so it's VBA. I've got a one
dimensional array, with 10 elements, random values, which came from various
cells, so I can't simply sort the range. So, I'm at, how do I sort an array.
It's been about 15 years since I've done any sorting programming, and I just
can't get my brain to engage. I've checked out Sub QuickSort that Tom Ogilvy
posted, but it's multi-dimensional, and there's a column assignment that I
can't reconcile. So, I'm just stuck - brain-lock.

Let the worksheet sort help you:


1. copy the array into an unused column
2. sort the column
3. pull the values back int the array

Here is a very simple example:

Sub sortedaffair()
s = Array(3, 1, 6, 21, 8, 5, 19, 33)
For i = 0 To 7
J = i + 1
Cells(J, "B").Value = s(i)
Next

Columns("B:B").Sort Key1:=Range("B1")

For i = 0 To 7
J = i + 1
s(i) = Cells(J, "B").Value
Next
End Sub

I googled Sorting Arrays in Excel and got the following:
'Sort array
For lLoop = 0 To UBound(MyArray)
For lLoop2 = lLoop To UBound(MyArray)
If MyArray(lLoop2) < MyArray(lLoop) Then
' Swap values
sgl1 = MyArray(lLoop)
sgl2 = MyArray(lLoop2)
MyArray(lLoop) = sgl2
MyArray(lLoop2) = sgl1
End If
Next lLoop2
Next lLoop

Testing each element against the other is what I couldn't seem to grasp.
Thank you all for your input!
