How do you tell XL to hide all columns in the active worksheet from a
cell where you found text, rFoundCell (declared as a range) to column
"Z"?

Worksheet("MySheet").Range(Columns(col), Columns(26)).Hidden = True

where col = rFoundCell.column

If you need to qualify Range, you need to qualify columns.

With Worksheet("MySheet")
.Range(.Columns(col), .Columns(26)).Hidden = True
End With

That worked, Steve. But I can't figure out why the rest of the macro
isn't incrementing. The macro runs, but just on the currently selected
sheet.

Sub HideCol()
Dim rTopCell As Range
Dim lColTop As Long
Dim WkSht As Worksheet
For Each WkSht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
If Not Right(WkSht.Name, 7) = "Records" Then

Set rTopCell = ActiveSheet.Range("3:3").find("top",
LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart)
If Not rTopCell Is Nothing Then
lColTop = rTopCell.Column

WkSht.Range(Columns(lColTop), Columns("AC")).Hidden =
True
End If
End If
Next
End Sub

I did some more testing. When I run the macro on other sheets in the
workbook (the ones the macro can't find when run from the first sheet),
I get "Range method of object failed" on

WkSht.Range(Columns(lColTop), Columns("AC")).Hidden =
True

I watched the values for both lColTop and the found cell and both are
correct. Any ideas?
Thanks for the help.

Guess you need to read everybody's response.

Thanks again, Tom (sorry I called you "Steve" in last reply). Works
fine, as usual!

Apparently yours posted while I was working on my response to Steve.
