formulas refer to columns that are deleted
I have a workbook with a worksheet that gets refreshed
from a .prn file. Every 4 to 6 years there will be an additional 2 columns for a week and then they will be deleted. I have formulas on another worksheet that refer to these columns. Anyone have any ideas on how to deal with this? Of course once the column is gone I get an error in my formula. The .prn file is created by another program. I tried to get the folks using that program to add those columns and leave them there permanently (showing zeros when not used) but apparently that is not possible. So I'm looking for other ideas. Thank you - Sharon |

The first thing that comes to mind is that you could start with
something like this: Do x = x + 1 Loop Until Cells(1, x).Value = "" This will run until it comes to a blank column. Then you can run the code one way or another based on that number If x = 8 Then blah blah blah Else If x = 10 blah blah blah End If That is just one example of how you can use the information. Let me know if you need further help. - Pikus :D --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/ |
