Good morning!!

To start, I understand that columns can be hidden/unhidden via the Format function on the toolbar. What I need to have happen is to use IsDate to search F2:F40 for a date, none particular, but a date. If not, in the row containing the False return, look at the contents in column A, Match it in Sheet2, whatever column it is in, and hide that column. If it does, just fall through and continue. Let me know if I can detail it better than below;

Sheet1

Assuming it was on this line
Code:
Set Fnd = Sheets("[COLOR=#ff0000]sheet2[/COLOR]").Rows(1).Find(Cl.Offset(, -5).Value, , , xlWhole, , , False, , False)
Change the value in red to match your actual sheet name

That's the name I use just a test workbook. I'll implement it once I get it working.

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
Was it that line of code that gave the Run time error 9 Subscript out of range error?

In that case there is no sheet called "Sheet2" in the active workbook when you ran the code.

Well that was a duh moment!! Evidently, the add-in I used to post, brought up a module that covered my existing module. I was pasting it into a different WB module. Ok, it has one hiccup and it may just be the way I communicated it. The column that I need hid is the matching sheet2 column; sheet1 text3(A4) to sheet2 column(D), so column(D) would be hidden. It hid column(F) text5 for some reason.

Evidently it didn't like me just running the module. I reset the columns, saved the WB and then reopened it. It got the right column but also hid col(F) thru (AM)!

That's because F5 to F40 were not a date.
If you want to limit it to the used range try
Code:
    For Each Cl In Range("F2", Range("F" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
