Add multiple columns in between
 

Hi,

I have coulmns A through CJ and I want to add 27 coulmns before column O.
What is the easiest way to do it?

Thanks for your help.
Nee

Add multiple columns in between
 

Try this idea
Sub insertcols()
mc = "o" 'tested with "d"
cti = 27 ' tested with 2
Columns(mc).Offset(, -cti).Resize(, cti).Insert
End Sub

Thanks David,it worked.

But I want to how do we know that from column O to AO it is 27 columns? Do
we count all the way from O to AO to see if that equals 27 or is there a
easier way to know that?

Thanks!

Perhaps you really meant column Ao since (I should have tested with col o)
col O is column 15 and you can't subtract 27 from 15 to get -column 12

There are 26 letters in the alphabet. 26 would get you to AP, so add one.

Hi,

1. Type O:AO into the Name Box and press Enter
2. Press Ctrl++ (Control Plus)

This means it has to be done manually, excel doesn't tell you the column name
equivalent to the number.

It would if you used R1C1 reference style instead of letters.
