There is a drop down list from D to AG in VBA user form. The user selects any column from D to AG in the form. I am looking for a simple VBA code to show exactly one column from D to AG (which user have selected) and hide all columns between D to AG. All other columns (not in between D and AG) remain unaffected.

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
Let's assume that user has selected column "AC"
Try
VBA Code:
Sub ShowOneCol()
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  Columns("D:AG").Hidden = True
  Columns("AC").Hidden = False
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Solution
try this for Userform Dropdown. this will require user use the dropdown click on button

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim Clm As String
Clm = ComboBox1.Value
ActiveSheet.Range("D:AC").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
ActiveSheet.Cells(, Clm).EntireColumn.Hidden = False
Unload Me
End Sub

I'm confused did you want the user to select from the dropdown or just always Hide the Column "AC"? if I'm not mistaken the Code posted by Peter post 4 will always hide Column "AC"
