Hello everyone!

I am new at this website. I am currently working for a bank and I have to do loads of Waterfalls so I tought that I could automatize the process.

Based on this website, http://www.contextures.com/excelwaterfallchart.html , I started recording my moves with VBA to get to the same result.

But I encountered two main issues:
1) The columns I tried to insert beween the numbers (5000; -503; ... 2475) and the labels (Start; Jan ... Dec) are not insterted in between those two columns but at the right of the numbers.
2) the Downs and Ups are not calculated and when I click in the cell I find these formulas =-MIN(#REF!;0) and =MAX(#REF!;0) instead of the formulas I wanted (given in the website above).


Code:
Sub Waterfall()
'
' Waterfall Macro
'
'
    Columns("E:E").Select
    Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
    Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
    Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
    Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
    Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
    Range("E3").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Base"
    Range("F3").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "End"
    Range("G3").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Down"
    Range("H3").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Up"
    Range("I3").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Start"
    Range("J3").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Net Cash Flow"
    Range("E4").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "2000"
    Range("E19").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "2000"
    Range("I5").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "5000"
    Range("H6").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=MAX(RC[2],0)"
    Range("G6").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=-MIN(RC[3],0)"
    Range("J18").Select
    Selection.Cut
    Range("F18").Select
    ActiveSheet.Paste
    Range("E6").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=SUM(R[-1]C,R[-1]C[3]:R[-1]C[4])-RC[2]"
    Range("E6").Select
    Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("E6:E17"), Type:=xlFillDefault
    Range("E6:E17").Select
    Range("G6").Select
    Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("G6:G17"), Type:=xlFillDefault
    Range("G6:G17").Select
    Range("H6").Select
    Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("H6:H17"), Type:=xlFillDefault
    Range("H6:H17").Select
End Sub


Thank you so much I mean it :)
