Default Deleting unwanted colums on a worksheet

I need to know how to delete unwanted coulums on a worksheet. I remember
being taught this in school 10 years ago but i guess its been pushed out of
my memory after all this time. All the extra colums are slowing down our
programs. any help would be appreciated.

Default Deleting unwanted colums on a worksheet

You cannot "delete" columns. Perhaps they are formatted so you should select
all of the unwanted columns by putting the cursor on the column labelhold
the shift keygoto the last to deletetouch the delete keysave.

You may then hide the columns
