Hi Phillip,

You might like to try something like:

ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(1,1),Cells
(1,delCol)).EntireColumn.Delete

Hi there,

I've got a little problem which i hope someone will be
able to help me
with please.

I have a macro that counts the number of columns as it
processes a table
of data, this number goes into a variable called
ColCount. After a
variable number of column headings (the first row of the
table contains
the column headings) the headings change from letters to
numbers, these
numbered column headings are not only included in
ColCount but also in a
new counter called SaveCol. This is becuase i need to
delete all the
columns before those starting with numbers.

At the moment all i have is another variable called
delCol which is set
to:

delCol = ColCount - SaveCol.

I think i need to use somethink like:
ActiveSheet.Columns("A:delCol").EntireColumn.Dele te

but as im sure you can alls see "A:delCol" is not allowed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Phillip
