Hi, I am trying to set if statements so that only more than 1 column can be selected before the code runs, However I am having trouble with if the cells selected are more than 1 as it thinks the columns have been selected. Is there a way round this?

Code:
    If Selection.Cells.Count = 1 Then Exit Sub
    If Selection.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub '<--------
    If Selection.Columns.Count = 1 Then Exit Sub
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
I don't understand the second line. Between the first and second lines you have covered every possibility (other than no cells being selected) so the odds of your code ever running are pretty small.

Hi RoryA, What I am trying to achieve is the end user can only select 2 or more columns for the code to continue, if they select Individual or multiple cells then exit the sub.

Not sure if this is what you're after
Code:
    With Selection
      If .Columns.Count = 1 Then Exit Sub
      If Not .Cells.CountLarge / .Columns.Count = 1048576 Then Exit Sub
   End With
This will exit the sub if the user has not selected 2 or more complete columns. Assumes using xl 2007 or later
