Gary,

Maybe I'm missing something, but if you already have the column numbers, why
can't you just subtract one from the other to get number of columns? E.g.,

Function NumCols(Col1 As Long, Col2 As Long)
NumCols = Abs(Col1 - Col2) + 1
End Function

just curious:

is there a way to get the number of columns using column numbers instead
of letters?

columns("K:BR").count
returns 60

but i'd like to use the column numbers instead.
