Hi,

I am trying to write a VBA code that would allow me to hide all columns containing whatever text/option has been selected from a drop down list in excel.

For example, all the drop down list options are within columns D:Z. The drop down list contains "Cat", "Dog", "Horse", "Fish", " ". If I am selected on the blank " " option in the drop down list then I want to hide all columns in "D:Z" containing blanks.

The only condition for hiding columns containing blanks is that all rows in the column must be blank when the D:Z range is selected

The drop down list is associated with another sheet in the background

I am fairly new to writing VBA code and any help would be MUCH appreciated.

Thank you !
