On a spreadsheet, ActiveCell is NOT the widest cell in a column, but looking for VBA to adjust width of column based on ActiveCell

VBA Code: 
ActiveCell.EntireColumn.AutoFit 'adjusts to widest cell in column

ActiveCell.AutoFit 'no such thing

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
