Default Yet another Newby question about selecting

I haven't seen the beginning of this thread, but if you are trying to

create a macro that does
nothing but what you show below, you don't need a macro and button for

that. Excel has a
shortcut key. From Help:

CTRL+SHIFT+* (asterisk): Select the current region around the active cell

(the data area
enclosed by blank rows and blank columns). In a PivotTable report, select

the entire PivotTable
report.

What version of Excel are you using? Have you set the TakeFocusOnClick

property of your button
to False? If you haven't, that may be the problem. There's no ActiveCell

once you click the
button (it's a bug, fixed in later versions).


That did it! And I never would have thought to look there. Thank you!

Excel 97
