Error while running Macro in excell

[bjurcina]

Error message - item not found

Blue text is what is highlighted

I'm not a programer and I assume this may be simple to the folks on this forum. I can usually figure out what it's trying to do but in a case like this I need either a little push or dirrections to a source of information that will help me to better understand some of the basic commands.

I assume that it is saying to end the macro if mycoltosort = .Shapes(Application.Caller).TopLeftCell.Column and that it can't find some part of that line. ??

Thanks for any suggestions.

End If

myColToSort = .Shapes(Application.Caller).TopLeftCell.Column

Set myTable = .Range("A" & TopRow & ":A" _
& LastRow).Resize(, iCol)
If .Cells(FirstRow, myColToSort).Value _
< .Cells(LastRow, myColToSort).Value Then
mySortOrder = xlDescending

Sounds like you have addressed it by its parent.

Show us all of the code.

Thanks for the reply

This is it, including the author. There is another part but that is for setting up the invisible rectangles in the top row.
