Sorting macro skips the first row and begins sorting the second

A simple sort routine is being used across a number of reports, but there's a few instances where the sort begins on the second row (row 13) and the not the first (row 12). It's strange, because the same code works fine in the majority of cases.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Sheets("Department").Select
Range("B12:D27").Select
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Department").Sort.SortFields.Clear
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Department").Sort.SortFields.Add2 Key:= _
Range("C12:C27"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlDescending, DataOption _
:=xlSortNormal
With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Department").Sort
.SetRange Range("B12:D27")
.Header = xlYes
.MatchCase = False
.Orientation = xlTopToBottom
.SortMethod = xlPinYin
.Apply
End With
 

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
.Header:=xlYes

means you have a header row which is not included in the sort. Change it to

.Header:=xlNo

and try again.
