    how to know in which order it is sorted

    Hi,

    I have some headers in my sheet. When they click on the header it has to be sorted.

    When it is sorted by ascending and next time when they click header I want it to be sorted by descending.

    Right now I have implemented to sort Descending . Now how will I check in which order does it sorted?

    If know the order in which it is sorted currently then I will sort it in the opposite way..

    If the firsrt value in the range is less than the last, it's sorted ascending.

    If a list is already sorted, then if the first value in the list is less that the last, the list is sorted ascending.
