Hi,

I am looking to hide columns by header names. The columns I would like to hide are "name", "date" and "age".

Thanks!

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Do you actually have a column called UserID in row 1?

Hi - I'm trying to run the following based on your initial suggestions but nothing seems to be happening?

Sub Hide_Me()
'"TR Trial Num", "TR Finance MU Cde", "TR Managing MU Cde", "TR Updating MU Cde", "TR Other Dsn Factors Multiple", "TR Objectives Multiple", "TR PA Fct", "TR FPV Fct", and "TR FPETrt Act"
Dim Lastcolumn As Long
Lastcolumn = Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
For i = 1 To Lastcolumn
If Cells(1, i).Value = "TR Trial Num" Or Cells(1, i).Value = "TR Finance MU Cde" Or Cells(1, i).Value = "TR Managing MU Cde" Or Cells(1, i).Value = "TR Updating MU Cde" Or Cells(1, i).Value = "TR Other Dsn Factors Multiple" Or Cells(1, i).Value = "TR Objectives Multiple" Or Cells(1, i).Value = "TR PA Fct" Or Cells(1, i).Value = "TR FPV Act" Or Cells(1, i).Value = "TR FPETrt Act" Then Columns(i).Hidden = True
Next
End Sub

Do any of those values exist in row 1 of the active sheet?

That's a different question, so you will need to start a new thread.
Thanks
