Hello,

I am trying by VBA code to sekect a range from the active cell to the very last cell in the same column (on row 1048576) regardless if it is empty or not. I have tried the code below without sucess.

Range(ActiveCell, ActiveColumn & 1048576).Select

Greatful for any suggestion.

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
How about
VBA Code:
ActiveCell.Resize(Rows.Count - ActiveCell.Row + 1).Select

VBA Code:
Range(ActiveCell, Cells(1048576, ActiveCell.Column)).Select
or
VBA Code:
Range(ActiveCell, Cells(Rows.Count, ActiveCell.Column)).Select

Hello Fluff and Mark858! :)

I see no difference in the functionality of your three suggestions. All codes work great.

THANK YOU for the help.

Kind regards

From experience Resize uses more resources than referring directly to the range and so has an effect if you are dealing with a lot of large ranges. It won't make any difference what code you use with what you are doing.

The use of 1048576 in the first code I posted means that it won't be backwards compatible with anyone using below Excel 2007 so it will error if you ran it on a computer running 2003 for example.
Both the other codes using Rows.Count are backwards compatible.
