    Select non-consecutive columns with a VBA macro

    Hi,
    I am trying to write a VBA code that automatically detects the end of columns (until it reached a blank cell). Then selects the columns of the user-selected cells.

    Here is the sub I am writing:

    Do While IsEmpty(ActiveCell.Offset(n, 0)) = False
    n = n + 1
    Loop
    Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.Offset(n - 1, 0)).Select

    This only works for one cell that is active. As I said, I want to select columns of all selected cells of a row. Example: If I have selected A1, D1 and F1 then, I want to select data below all these 3 cells with a single click macro. I searched a lot but not able to find any such VBA online.

    Thanks

    i would believe this should do what you want
    Code:
    Dim rng As Range, cel As Range
    Set rng = Selection
    
    For Each cel In Selection
        Set rng = Union(rng, cel.Resize(Cells(Rows.Count, cel.Column).End(xlUp).Row - cel.Row + 1))
    Next
    rng.Select
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed
