Are different column widths possible on the same worksheet?
 

Are different column widths possible on the same worksheet?
 

Absolutely.

Either set them using FormatColumnWidth, or just move the cursor to the
right of the cell header, where it changes to a black cross, and click and
drag.

Of course, had you tried you would have known the answer without asking.
However, you may NOT have part of the column one width and another part of
the SAME column a different width. Perhaps that was really your question.

Unless you mean different widths within the same column.

Width is a property of the entire column and cannot be changed at random areas
in that column.

Yes I know, but the OP's sparse did not suggest that was the question.

My post was directed towards OP, not yourself.

Sorry I tacked onto your post.
