Column Widths
It's up to you, it will work unaltered and you could start on the learning
process or employ someone to do it for you
You can right-click on a sheet tab and select view code, enter the code I
gave you in the resulting window and the code will run on that sheet

Many thanks for this ... however I've never used code before - is this
something that I can do easily or is it best left to the experts?

If Not Application.Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
Columns("A:A").ColumnWidth = Target.Value
Application.EnableEvents = True

Columns("A:A").ColumnWidth= 8.38

Is there any way of being able to enter a number into a cell and that
number
will represent the width of the column? For example, if I wanted the
cell
to
be a width of 5, I enter that number into a cell in the column?
I hope I've explained that correctly, if not I'll try again!!
Any help will be much appreciated.
Many thanks.
