This should do what you need
Dim i As Long
Dim numcolumn As Long
numcolumn = Range("J2")
For i = numcolumn To 1 Step -1
Columns("K:K").Offset(0, i).Delete

Hi all!
I am trying to run a program which would allow me to do the following:
I have a number that is put in Cell J2 by me or any other user. That
number denotes the number of columns away from column K that I need to
start deleting from; I will delete from there all the way up to column
AC. So, fo rexample, I have the number 5 in cell J2. This would mean I
need to start deleting from column P all the way to column AC. If the
number is 3 in J2, then I would delete from column M to column AC. I
don't know the method to select the columns based on the number. So
far I have:
NumColumn = Range("J2")
Range("K2").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0,NumColumn)
From this point on, I don't know how to select the column I'm in after
the offset all the way to column AC. If someone can help with this, I
would be forever grateful!
Thanks in advance!
