OK' I can find the last used cell in a column but only when I know which column it is (A, B, C etc).
I want to search for a particular word "Late" (I know it only appears once in the sheet) and then find the last cell in that column.
The following seems to work but although the correct cell gets selected I still get an error (Method 'Range' of object'_Global' failed)

Sub MyMacro()
Cells.Find(What:="Late", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
Range("Late").Offset(65532, 0).End(xlUp).Select
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.

This one worked for me....so one way would be

</pre>
Sub MyMacro()
Cells.Find(What:="Late", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False).Activate
Cells(65536, ActiveCell.Column).End(xlUp).Select
End Sub
</pre>
