Quick question (I think)

I have a sheet that is auto sorting my content that is working well (shown below). My issue is, I no longer manually fill column 6. The content is now auto filled from another sheet. I want to do two things.
  1. How can I set this to make sure it only shows for one sheet (the tab name is "Results View")
  2. Have this update without having to make changes to the formulas in column 6

// LinkBack to this script:
// How can I make some data on a Google Sheets auto-sorting?

/**
* Automatically sorts the 1st column (not the header row) Descending.
*/
function onEdit(event){
var sheet = Results View();
var editedCell = sheet.getActiveCell();

var columnToSortBy = 6;
var tableRange = "A2:f500"; // What to sort.

{
var range = sheet.getRange(tableRange);
range.sort( { column : columnToSortBy, ascending: false } );
}
}
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
