title: sorting a variant?
body: <p>Could anyone please help me with sorting a variant</p>
  
  <pre><code>   var_a = activesheet.range("A3:AL" &amp; lastrow ).value 
  
     var_a 1 column has some numbers
     var_a 2 column has dates 2/22/2011 like these
     var_a 3 column some other and so on
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now the entire variant <code>var_a</code> should be sorted in ascending order considering the column 2 that has dates</p>
  
  <p>I know the way to do on the sheets but never worked on a variant , yes i can sort the sheet and then get the contents of the sheet into a <code>var_a</code> is one solution but sorting the sheet its taking 30 to 40 seconds which is undesired so i wanted to sort the variant instead of sheet.</p>
  
  <p>Please help me with these Thanks </p>
