Skipping X Number of Columns

Posted by Brian S. on January 15, 2002 5:51 AM

I have a sheet and the data that I need starts at column K. I then need to move 2 columns (L,M), then insert 3 new columns. This pattern will go on until my last data set is reached(AI). Not quite sure how to properly refernce the columns in VB (especially those past Z!) Any help is appereciated!

Thanks,
Brian

when i've done this before i use the following method which is slightly cheesy but it works

alpha = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"

string1 = mid(alpha,int(counter/26),1) ' how many 26s
string2 = mid(alpha,counter - int(counter/26)*26,1) ' the remainder

string3 =string1&string2 ' concatenate

columns(string3).insert ' insert the column
