Hi Martin,

The Width property returns the selected column width, in points.

The ColumnWidth property returns the width of the column using a unit equal
to the width of one character in the Normal style

Why does the following line of code return 48 rather the 8.43 when used on
a
default column width?

MsgBox "Selected Column Width is " & Selection.Width
