    If all column you want to delete have the same value but different from 1st column.
    you may use goto special to select all difference value and delete columns.

    Thanks, everyone for getting back to be about this. Im sure all the suggested solutions work but in this case Im just going with the "go to special".

    Works like a breeze and easy to do
