I've built a macro to perform some general formatting. The only catch is
that this spreadsheet is an export from a web based application. The headers
export as hyperlinks, so I have converted those headers to text PRIOR to
running the macro.

I've included the code from the macro here. Does anyone see any reason why
all the data seems to disappear from the spreadsheet when the macro
completes? It's like you highlighted all the columns and deleted them. The
title bar still shows that I am in the correct spreadsheet.

Sub Traci()
'
' Traci Macro
' Macro recorded 5/18/2006 by TReavis
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+b
'
Columns("H:K").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
Columns("C:D").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
Cells.Select
With Selection
.VerticalAlignment = xlBottom
.Orientation = 0
.AddIndent = False
.ShrinkToFit = False
.ReadingOrder = xlContext
.MergeCells = False
End With
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("A2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes, _
OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _
DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
Range("H19").Select
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWindow.WindowState = xlNormal
ActiveWindow.WindowState = xlMaximized
End Sub

When I run yours or this I get a,b,e,f,g columns left. Notice NO selections.
You probably don't want ALL of the cells and you probably only want to
unmerge the cells?

Sub deletecolumns()
Columns("H:k").Delete
Columns("c:d").Delete
With Cells 'probably only want merge cells
.VerticalAlignment = xlBottom
.Orientation = 0
.AddIndent = False
.ShrinkToFit = False
.ReadingOrder = xlContext
.MergeCells = False
End With
End Sub
