Fullers,

Be careful with Activecell - it isn't always the top-left cell:

Sub Test()

SelectionAddress = Selection.Address
FirstRow = Selection(1).Row
FirstColumn = Selection(1).Column
LastRow = FirstRow + Selection.Rows.Count - 1
LastColumn = FirstColumn + Selection.Columns.Count -1
'or
'LastRow = Selection(Selection.Cells.Count).Row
'LastColumn = Selection(Selection.Cells.Count).Column

End Sub

HTH,

I want to be able to have a user highlight a range of cells and then run a
macro. What I need from this macro is to obtain the range address, the first
row & column and the last row & column.

At the moment I can get the address and the first row, column with the
following macro:

Sub Test()

SelectionAddress = Selection.Address
FirstRow = ActiveCell.Row
FirstColumn = ActiveCell.Column

End Sub

I cannot figure out how to get the last row, column. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
