I collect a variable column from a messge box:

st = InputBox("Insert column to start")

and I then want to get the value for a range of cells in this column and
subsequent work on them, all in a loop (where lastrow has been determined
elsewhere)

For irow = 2 to lastrow
v1 = (st & ":" & irow ).value
....................
Next irow

This fails as the range has too many " in it. How do I express a range
when I have the column as st (assume st ="C") and the row as irow (assume
irow=2).

Thanks,
