How could I change this code to find the cell = MyMonthandYear and delete all columns to the left of that column up to and including column "P"? Basically, in the range from P-last column, I want to keep the column with header that matched MyMonthandYear and all columns to the right of that column.

Code:
Sub MyColumn()
MyMonthandYear = Format(Date, "mmmm-yy")
LastColumn = Range("IV1").End(xlToLeft).Column
For i = LastColumn To 16 Step -1
If (Cells(1, i).Value) <> MyMonthandYear Then
Cells(1, i).EntireColumn.Delete
End If
Next i

End Sub

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
This seems to work

Code:
Sub MyColumn()
MyMonthandYear = Format(Date, "mmmm-yy")
Dim MyMonth As Range
LastColumn = Range("IV1").End(xlToLeft).Column
lastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = LastColumn To 16 Step -1
If (Cells(1, i).Value) = MyMonthandYear Then
Cells(1, i - 1).EntireColumn.Delete
End If
Next i
 
End Sub
