    Hidden columns - how to copy only the unhidden columns?

    I have columns A, B, C, D, E, F ............BZ

    Some of these columns are hidden (say they do not meet my criteria).

    But when I select the unhidden columns and copy to another sheet, those hidden columns are also copied. How can I copy only the unhidden columns?

    Many thanks.

    hi plumberef. select the range like you did (Column A:BZ). then press ALT + ;
    that is to select visible cells only. a longer way is to press CTRL + G -> Special -> select Visible cells only -> OK. then copy

    Thanks, if you have clicked on the * and added our rep.
