Hi roblo,

I didn't realize you were automating Excel from VBScript. Your original
syntax was correct, as you have a worksheet object variable declared:

With Worksheet("Sheet1")
Range(.Range("A1"), .Range("A1").Offset(colTOright)).Select
End With

Should be:

With worksheet
Range(.Range("A1"), .Range("A1").Offset(colTOright)).Select
End With

Thanks Jake for the suggestion, but it does not work in my .VBS
script. Maybe in VBA?

colTOright = 6
' Create a new Excel workbook
set objXL = WScript.CreateObject("Excel.Application")
objXL.Visible = True
set workbook = objXL.Workbooks.Add
set worksheet = workbook.Worksheets("sheet1")
' worksheet.Range("A1:F1").Select
With Worksheet("Sheet1")
Range(.Range("A1"), .Range("A1").Offset(colTOright)).Select
End With

I'm just trying to replace the ending cell (F1) with a string or use
an Offset. Didn't think it would be that difficult.

newColumn = .Cells(A1).Offset(colTOright).Value
and replace F1 with newColumn, but that object doesn't except strings.


worksheet.Range("A1:F1").Select
