ActiveCell.Column returns a number. You would need to use anothe
method to select based on it.

Colset = ActiveCell.Column

Cells(600,Colset).Select

Or even better

Cells(600,ActiveCell.Column).Select

BTW, using Range("Colset" & 600).Select would show up in excel a
Range(Colset600).Select. If you wanted to concatenate the colum
number it would b Range(Colset & 600).Select (which still wouldn't wor
in our case). You can however do this with a row:

Range("G" & ActiveCell.Row).Select

Hi
should do (works for me) if colSet is the column NUMBER of column G
(that is 7)

for your other question: Cells has the syntax
cells(row_index,column_index)
