This should work:

For just selecting the column "N" range would be:
Range("N1", Range("N1").End(xlDown)).Select

To select all the rows of the N column range:
Range("N1", Range("N1").End(xlDown)).EntireRow.Select

Hello - haven't been on this group in years, but I just
came across a problem, and I'm not sure if the syntax has
changed since older versions of Excel, but I can't make
this work. I'm attempting to select row 1, make N1 the
active cell, and then select down through the range (thus
choosing all the rows in the range, but using column N as
the active column). When I do the following code, it
uses
A as the active row and, ultimately, the entire range is
not selected:

Rows("1:1").Select
Range("N1").Activate
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select

I thought about choosing just N1, selecting the range
down, and then selecting all the rows, but I can't make
that work for a dynamic range (i.e. without it choosing
specifically the number of rows I have in the example I'm
using through the macro recorder). I'm admittedly not
the
most proficient programmer, but I remember I used to know
how to manually adjust for this, and it either slipped my
memory or that syntax has changed. Probably the former...

Any help would be most appreciated!

Thanks,
Karen
