Selecting Non-Consecutive Variables
 

Hello Experts!

I've written some code that prompts the user to indicate which column
two type of data appear in.

I then want to select those two columns, which may not be next to each
other, to copy to another sheet.

I've tried both versions below but neither work! Can anyone tell me
where I'm going wrong?

Columns(ISBNCol & "," & QtyCol).Select
Columns(ISBNCol, QtyCol).Select

Thanks

Colin

Selecting Non-Consecutive Variables
 

Union(Columns(ISBNCol), Columns(QtyCol)).Select

But you don't usually have to select a range to work with it.

Selecting Non-Consecutive Variables
 

Colin,

It depends on what ISBNCol and QtyCol a numbers, ranges, strings?

If numbers (3, 5, for example) or strings ("C", "E", for example):

Union(Columns(ISBNCol), Columns(QtyCol)).Select

If ranges:

Union(ISBNCol.EntireColumn, QtyCol.EntireColumn).Select
