Hi,

Thanks a lot for your reply..
The code you have provided working fine in another same project, but the
case in what i am doing is, i uploaded a txt file with delimiters.. so after
uploading entire rows and colums containg the data is selected by default..

I beleive there is some problem in code in loading the text file.. but it
works fine.. hereis the code below.. pls update of any changes.. thanks ag
ain.

Workbooks.OpenText FileName:=FileToOpen _
, Origin:=xlWindows, StartRow:=1, DataType:=xlDelimited,
Other:=True, OtherChar:= _
"|"

FileToOpen contains the file name..
thanks,
srikanth

Both suggestions work for me.

If the column is empty, the entire column will be selected.

In fact, your original code worked for me.

Thanks for your reply..
The data is in separate columns.. A, B and C..
If i execute the below command it gives a n error..

"Select method of Range class failed"

thanks,

One way:

Range("C1:C" & Range("C1").End(xlDown).Row).Select

or

Range("C1:C" & Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row).Select if there are gaps in
Column C

Is your data actually in three columns or is it in column A and just
looks
as though it's across A to C?
