Hi All,

First time poster, so go easy :). Our company has a stupidly long contract progress spread sheet on one tab. This contains information pertaining to Contracts, Sales, Procurement, Technical and Health & Safety.

I am trying to set up 5 command buttons that hide various columns in order to show only pertinent information for that particular department

I can get button 1 to work in isolation by using the code:

--------------------------------------------------------------
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
If CommandButton1.Caption = "Sales" Then
Range("D:D, O:S").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
CommandButton1.Caption = "Sales Only"
Else
Range("D:D, O:S").EntireColumn.Hidden = False
CommandButton1.Caption = "Sales"
End If
End Sub
--------------------------------------------------------------

Here is an example of what I am trying to achieve:

Example:

Button 1 toggles cells A:D

Button 2 toggles cell B:G and S:X but cancels out any command initiated by buttons 1 or 3.

Button 3 toggles cells A:B and F:G but cancels out any command initiated by buttons 1 or 2.

Hope this makes sense and fingers crossed is achievable. Below is the buttons I am trying to set up. All are Command buttons.

If someone can point me in the right direction, I would be ever so grateful. Thanks in advance.
 
You did not confirm if posted solution resolved your original request & if so, you should mark it as solution?

Sample workbook contains no code? - you need to clarify if this additional requirement is for a different workbook or an update to include with your first request?

Bugger, uploaded the wrong one. The one with the code is at home. I will upload it as soon as I get back :)
