hi
it worked in 2003. I retested to make sure. here is the copy and paste from
my vb editor..
Sub test1()
Dim x As Range
Set x = Selection
MsgBox x.Address
End Sub
x is the variable. make sure you pre-select the range before running the
macro.

Set x = selection does not seem to work. I want a currently selected area
that I will not know in advance. So it must take the currently selected area
and save that to a variable.

x = what ever the current selction is.

msgbox x.address

How do I assign the current range to a variable like X?
