Hi Ben

It's Selection :

Sub test()
Dim Rng As Range
Set Rng = Selection
MsgBox Rng.Address & " on " & Rng.Parent.Name & _
Chr(10) & Rng.Count & " cells"
End Sub

HTH. Best wishes Harald

of course that fails if the selection is not a range..

if not TypeOf selection Is Range then
MsgBox "ouch"
else
set rng=Selection
end if

on the other hand...

Activewindow.RangeSelection

will work.. but I never see it used..

Actually,

Activewindow.RangeSelection gives back a range regardless what is
selected. It will give the last selected range if currently no range is
selected (when e.g. a shape is selected) This can be very handy or very
annoying depending on what you want.

in a scenario like "select range, press button" it's indispensable...

Sub DoButton()
MsgBox ActiveWindow.RangeSelection.Address
End Sub
