On a spreadsheet, ActiveCell is NOT the widest cell in a column, but looking for VBA to adjust width of column based on ActiveCell

VBA Code:
ActiveCell.EntireColumn.AutoFit 'adjusts to widest cell in column

ActiveCell.AutoFit 'no such thing
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Try something like this:
VBA Code:
    ActiveCell.ColumnWidth = Len(ActiveCell)
