Won't always work though.

Open up a new sheet, populate cells D10:F15 and then try
that code. It will
give you 3 for the last column (Should be 6) and 6 for
the last row (Should be
15). It counts the rows/columns *within* the UsedRange
and does not necessarily
give you the last of either.

lcol = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Column - 1 + _
ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count

lrow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Row - 1 + _
ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count

Take lcol with example ranges I gave you above:-

ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Column will give you the first
column in the range, ie 4
ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count will give you the
number of columns in that
range ie 3
Add the first column to the number of columns and you
will always have 1 more
than the last column, hence the -1 in there. Same
principle for rows.

I asked this question not long ago and my personal
favorite answer is:

colCount = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count

It also works with Rows. - Pikus
