Hi all,
I know how to get the last row with the column "hard coded" IE:

Code:
--------------------
Sub Example1()
Cells(Cells.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Select
End Sub

--------------------
But instead of hard coding a column i want to select the column.
something like:
Code:
--------------------
Sub Example2()
Cells(Cells.Rows.Count, "With Selection").End(xlUp).Select
End Sub

--------------------
It dosen't work of course. Any direction on this would be appreciated.
Thx
Dave

Hello Desert Piranha,

Dim Col
Cells(Cells.Rows.Count, Col).End(xlUp).Select

Since Col is a variant it can then be a string like "A" or a number
like 1.

RETURN THE FIRST COLUMN OF A SELECTION:
FirstCol = Selection.Column

RETURN THE LAST COLUMN OF A SELECTION:
With Selection
LastCol = .Columns.Count + .Column - 1
End With

Sincerely,
Leith Ross

My nickname is Piranha, hence Desert Piranha.

Thank you for the information.

The Desert portion appeared to be a new appellation - hence the query.
