Finding last column & inserting

I have this working for rows in the same way I'm trying to get it to work for columns now, but I am getting an error and unsure what I've missed.

Code:
Summary.Select
FinalCol = Summary.Range("IV5").End(xlToLeft).Column - 2
Columns(FinalCol).Select
ActiveCell.EntireColumn.Select

vCols = Workings1.Cells(8, 3).Value
    
 Selection.Resize(columnsize:=2).Columns(2).EntireColumn. _
     Resize(columnsize:=vCols).Insert Shift:=xlToRight

    Selection.AutoFill Selection.Resize( _
     columnsize:=vCols + 1), xlFillDefault

    On Error Resume Next    'to handle no constants in range
    ' to remove the non-formulas
    Selection.Offset(1).Resize(vCols).EntireColumn. _
     SpecialCells(xlConstants).ClearContents

The vCols variable are the number columns to be inserted picked up from another cell storing this from user input (there are some other things before this macro is called).

The columns are to be inserted 2 columns to the left of the last column (sum column and a spacer column).

The error is showing on the line:
Code:
Selection.Resize(columnsize:=2).Columns(2).EntireColumn. _
     Resize(columnsize:=vCols).Insert Shift:=xlToRight

I must also admit, I did take the row insertion code, and tried to adapt it to columns, which mightn't quite be the right way to have gone about this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
