Hi,

Try,

Sub test()
Dim lastrow As Long

lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "J").End(xlUp).Row
Cells(lastrow, "J").Offset(0, 1).Resize(1, 16).Select
End Sub

HTH,
Jay

One more question. Now that I have selected the bottom of the area I want, how do I basically hold downt he shift key and select the range up to one row before the top?

Hi,

Rewrite the routine to do what you want. I don't know exactly what you need, so try the following. I have commented out another option, too.

'-------------
Sub test()
Dim lastrow As Long, firstrow As Long

lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "J").End(xlUp).Row
firstrow = Cells(lastrow, "J").End(xlUp).Row

If lastrow = 1 Then
Cells(lastrow, "J").Offset(0, 1).Resize(1, 16).Select
Else
Range(Cells(2, "K"), Cells(lastrow, "Z")).Select

'''' or use something like this
'''' Range(Cells(firstrow + 1, "K"), Cells(lastrow, "Z")).Select
End If

End Sub
'--------------

Bye,
Jay
