    hiding a few rows with a macro takes forever

    Folks,

    My code snippet is attached below. Notes follow.

    I am working on a range of less than 50 rows on a single worksheet. I have screenupdating turned off. Even so, this macro seems to take forever (in computer time). This is the only thing the macro is doing, so I think I may be using a poor choice of syntax. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Conor.

    Hello Conor,

    The reason it takes so long is you are hiding the cells. Each time a cell is hidden, the data in other columns on that row has to be shifted. It would much faster to hide the column of your named range.

    Sincerely,
    Leith Ross
