Hi

I have the below code but realise believe it is sorting only one column which means the other columns will be out of sync?

Code:
With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Tech FootPrint")
        
        lastrow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
        .Sort.SortFields.Clear


        .Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=.Range("B5").Resize(lastrow - 3), _
                             SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, _
                             Order:=xlAscending, _
                             DataOption:=xlSortNormal
        .Sort.SetRange .Range("B5").Resize(lastrow - 3)
        .Sort.Header = xlNo
        .Sort.MatchCase = False
        .Sort.Orientation = xlTopToBottom
        .Sort.SortMethod = xlPinYin
        .Sort.Apply
    End With

Here's a recorded macro that will sort the whole table based on column B:

Code:
 Range("Table16[[#Headers],[Client]]").Select    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Tech FootPrint").ListObjects("Table16").Sort. _
        SortFields.Clear
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Tech FootPrint").ListObjects("Table16").Sort. _
        SortFields.Add Key:=Range("Table16[Client]"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, _
        Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
    With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Tech FootPrint").ListObjects("Table16").Sort
        .Header = xlYes
        .MatchCase = False
        .Orientation = xlTopToBottom
        .SortMethod = xlPinYin
        .Apply
    End With

I'm happy to replace with the recorded code however unsure what the 'resize' piece is doing from the 1st piece of code and whether I can include it in the new?

Code:
Range("B5").Resize(lastrow - 3), _

I should mention that I have a a totals row!

advice appreciated!
