VBA Looping Issue_Merging Alternating Columns

[markp5]

Hi All,

I am new to writing macros in excel, and I am having trouble writing a macro to merge alternating columns in excel 2010.

My code is below, and a sample worksheet attached. The problem I am having is the macro will only merge the first column offset 1 from the active cell. It will not continue to the 3rd, 5th, etc.

Is there any way I can create a command that increases my offset numbers by a given value, in this case two? I can do this manually, but I am sure there must be a way to do this quickly within VBA.


Thanks for the help!

Best,
Mark

Hi Nilem,

I tried each macro in my sample workbook and the code simply hid all the columns that I had data in.

Also, sorry for not using tags, what are those exactly?

You need not hide the columns, but something else? Show the desired result in your file.

The desired result is illustrated in the file labeled "Example updated"

Thanks again for the help.
