Selecting a small range of cells to delete
 
This is a portion of code where I am using a listbox selection to find a
person in a list. The last line here is where I keep getting stuck. After I
find the person and move to the right, I want to select the cell I am on plus
two cells to the right so I can delete them. I've looked up as much as I can
in help and examples here but nothing seems to work for me. Can anyone assist?



Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()
Dim Remove As Object

'Remove on Employee Training Sheet

Set Remove = Worksheets("Keys").Range("L19")

If Remove < "" Then
Range("L19").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("B3").Select
Cells.Find(What:=Remove, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
Else
MsgBox ("No one is selected")
End If

ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Select
Range(ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3)).Select

Selecting a small range of cells to delete
 
hi
Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2)).Select
Selection.Delete

but if you want to delete, rolled it up to one line. no select needed...

Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2)).Delete shift:=xlUp

Selecting a small range of cells to delete
 
Gosh - I knew it was just that easy. I guess I don't get the syntax of the
"double" ActiveCell. Apparently you have to reference the cell you are on
then plus more cells? Thanks so much.
