usedRange
 

Hi,

I am trying to access excel files from Access. I am using the
UsedRange.Columns.count command to get the number of columns with data, but I
get a wrong number: 7 while I have only 3 columns.
Any ideas why this should happen and how to correct it?

Thanks is advance,
GC

Excel remembers the last cell you used.

You can reset it to what you want by using techniques (manual or code) at Debra
