Thanks for the help Jim, however allthough the "visible=false" was a good Idea
unfortunitly it will not work for what I need to do.
You see basicly what I am doing is I have a working code that takes chart
series values and locates them in there corisponding spread sheet. The
problem is that I want to delete all of irrelavent data columns in the same
spread sheet, thus only leaving the cloumns that are linked to data series on
my chart.
however when I use the Range("A:A,B:B,F:F.... ect ..ect ) command it doesn't
work once I get too man columns listed I think I can get up to "AF" and than
the range command seems to run out of gas and goes dumb (Excel VBA just
ignors that line all together).
I thought of trying to do this with using the column command but havent
been able to get that to work etiher.
Any more thoughts Anyone ?
