In case of the default activities as Sort Table, Sort DataTable are not working as expected giv a try on following:

  • read in excel with write range into a datattable (e.g. Variable: dtData)

  • assign activity:
    left side: dtSorted (Datatype: DataTable)
    right side:

    dtData.AsEnumerable.OrderByDescending(Function ( r ) CDbl(r(YourColNameOrIndex).toString.Trim)).CopyToDataTable
