SVB Example

Sorting variables: 

Option Base 1
Option Explicit
Sub Main
    Dim spr As Spreadsheet
    'assigns the active spreadsheet to the object spr
    Set spr = ActiveSpreadsheet
    'sorts the cell values in variable 1 in ascending order
    'based on their numeric values, then sorts the second
    'variable in descending order numerically
    spr.SortData(1,scSortAscending,scSortByNumeric, _
        2, scSortDescending, scSortByNumeric)
End Sub
