Hi folks,

Can anyone tell me the syntax to set a Range equal to the current selection.
For instance, suppose I have:

Dim NewRange as Range
Set NewRange = ? (current selection)

I've only ever used the activecell.currentregion, but in this particular circumstance I only want to work on a specific area of cells that contain data values, not the entire region of cells that are not seperated by a blank line or column. Many Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.

How about:

Set NewRange = Selection

HTH,

I should have known that. It just seemed like it would be too obvious. Thanks!
