Are you looking for a shortcut to quickly rearrange your worksheets in alphabetical order? Instead of dragging and manually arranging your worksheets, you can use VB for Microsoft® Excel® to quickly rearrange them into alphabetical order.
Excel currently has no built-in function to rearrange your worksheets. Therefore, if you have a workbook with many worksheets, the task of rearranging them may become long and drawn out, but luckily there is a way for this to be simplified. Follow our step by step instructions on how that can be done.

sCount = Worksheets.Count
If sCount = 1 Then Exit Sub
For i = 1 To sCount – 1
For j = i + 1 To sCount
If Worksheets(j).Name < Worksheets(i).Name Then
Worksheets(j).Move Before:=Worksheets(i)
End If
Next j
Next i
End Sub
From the Menu bar, select File, Close and Return to MS Excel.
Press ALT + F8 to get a list of macros.
