Hi,

I am trying to delete all columns that have a 99 in the first row. I have written the code below and it won't work. I am only new to the VBA game so any help would be appreciated.

Sub deletecolumn()
For Each c In Range("a1:bf1")
If c = 99 Then
Columns(c.Column).EntireColumn.Delete = True
Else
Columns(c.Column).EntireColumn.Delete = False
End If
Next
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
Sub deletecolumn()
For Each c In Range("a1:bf1")
If c = 99 Then
Columns(c.Column).EntireColumn.Delete = True
Else
Columns(c.Column).EntireColumn.Delete = False
End If
Next
End Sub

Try this:
Sub deletecolumn()
For c = 58 To 1 Step -1
If Cells(1, c) = 99 Then Cells(1, c).EntireColumn.Delete
Next
End Sub
