Default Need help hiding/unhiding column based on autofilter selection in a different column


I have a task before me I need help with.

I have a customer (My Boss) who wants to hide 2 columns in a
spreadsheet automatically when a specific text is selected from an
"autofilter list" in a different column. Then, show the hidden column
again when any other text is selected in the filter list column.

It's not obvious to me how to do this or if it can be done in Excel.
I'd appreciate any input you have here.

Thank you in advance for any input you have.

If you change your selection of a item from "autofilter list",
Worksheet_Calculate event is triggered,
therefore you can write macro you want using this event procedure.

for example,

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Dim w As Worksheet, f As Long

Set w = sheet2

With w.AutoFilter
With .Filters
For f = 1 To .Count
With .item(f)
If .On Then

'// When Jan.15,93 is selected, you want to hide some columns
If .Criteria1 Like "*01-15-93" Then

'// Codes Hiding some columns are here
Debug.Print "Hide Columns"
Exit Sub

End If
End If
End With
Next
End With
End With
End Sub
