Let's say I have an Excel table featuring one column ("B" for example) in which every cell has a different drop-down list for validation. My application is such that different cells in "B" may contain different items in their corresponding drop-down lists. I want to sort my table using a different column as the key, for example column "A", which contains dates, in ascending order.
My problem is that Excel's Sort function (apparently) does not include validation lists. Therefore, after sorting, each cell in "B" will most likely end up with the wrong drop-down list. Can somebody suggest a simple way to implement the sorting in VBA such that it includes the drop-down lists? I know I could try sorting the table first and then populating "B" with the drop-downs, but I want to avoid that option if possible.
