The code below selects every 2nd ROW in the selected range.

I cannot work out how to transform this code, so that it works for COLUMNS, also based on the selected range.

Any ideas?



VBA Code:
Sub selecteveryotherrow()
Dim MyRange As Range
Dim RowSelect As Range
Dim i As Integer
Set MyRange = Selection
Set RowSelect = MyRange.Rows(1)
For i = 3 To MyRange.Rows.Count Step 2
Set RowSelect = Union(RowSelect, MyRange.Rows(i))
Next i
Application.Goto RowSelect
End Sub

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
i just solved the question above, so i will move to the final point.
How do i change this code to make it every "nth" row.
Like it could be every 5th row, or every 9th row, etc.

Thanks in advance.
