Does anyone know of or have a VBA code that enables you to fix column width yet autofit rows?!

I would like columns E:G to have their width fixed to 75, yet still allow rows E12:G16 to autofit.

I was previously using the following so that columns E:G autofitted, as and when data was pulled into their corresponding cells, however I have been asked to slightly tweak things:

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Columns("E:G").EntireColumn.AutoFit
End Sub

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Try

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
With Columns("E:G")
    .AutoFit
    .WrapText = True
End With
End Sub

Are you talking about column widht being fixed and row height being autofit.
Code:
Range("E:G").ColumnWidth = 75
Range("12:16").Rows.Autofit

Or are you talking about Columns E:G having one width except for rows 12:16, which have different widths. No, because if any cell in a column is wider than the others, then its not a column.

Mike,

Yes - column width being fixed and row height being autofit.

I've used the code that you've supplied, which by the way works great - much appreciated. Is there anyway I could also specify that the autofit range should also wrap text?!

VOG, thank you for your help - again it's much appreciated, the code you supplied worked much in the same manner as my original code?!
