Please could somebody help me with this, I am the worlds biggest novice
at macros. I have recorded macros on XP before but not encountered this
problem before when I delete columns in excel on vista. The message
'wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment' comes up when
I run the macro and it highlights the text 'columns' in the line
'columns("A:A").Select'. Why is it doing this to me and how can I stop
it (in simple terms for a simple man please).

As you have an Excel macro, you'll do much better if you ask about it in a
discussion group for Excel.

Try he

microsoft.public.excel

microsoft.public.excel.programming

I crossposted to the second to get you going.

Hi
That line is possibly not the problem. Can you show us the whole macro
- impossible to say what the problem is otherwise.
regards
Paul
