Hi all,

HTML:
sn     cust name      
1       james           
2       marry           
3       eunice      
4       john            
5       parry

when counting used rows, 5 will be returned, which is the last cell with data.
Code:
lastblankcell = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count

but when counting columns, 3 will return, which is the last blank cell. Why is it not 2?
Code:
lastblankcell = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.columns.Count
 

Excel Facts

Wildcard in VLOOKUP
Use =VLOOKUP("Apple*" to find apple, Apple, or applesauce
It's alright. I found my answer. There's an cell in the last empty column that contains a space.
