Dim instance As SheetView Dim keyColumn As Integer Dim ascending As Boolean Dim showIndicator As Boolean Dim comparer As IComparer Dim value As Boolean value = instance.SortRows(keyColumn, ascending, showIndicator, comparer) | |
Parameters
- keyColumn
- Column index whose values are compared during sorting
- ascending
- Whether to sort in ascending order
- showIndicator
- Whether the sort indicator should be displayed
- comparer
- IComparer object used to compare the values
Return Value
Boolean: true if successful; false otherwiseRemarks
Use this method to sort all the rows in the sheet. It sorts the arrangement of rows in a sheet using one or more columns as the key. It is similar to the simpler SortRows(Int32,Boolean,Boolean) method, but adds an option for specifying the way of comparing that is used. Use this method to do a sort beyond the comparison technique provided by the comparer in the .NET framework.
This does not affect the data model, only how the data is displayed. Different overloads provide different ways to sort the rows.
Example
This example sorts a range of rows.
