Hi,

I have a Column F that is defaulted to be hidden. I have an arrow that is rightward facing and if I click on it, I want Column F to be shown and the arrow to rotate to face leftward. Then if I click on it again, Column F is hidden again and the arrow becomes rightward facing.

I have the code below which works individually for each, but when I combine to 1 macro they cancel each other out so to speak. Any ideas how I get around this to accomplish what I described above?

Thanks!

Sub ExpandColumnF()
If Shapes("Shape1").Rotation = 0 Then
Range("ColumnF").Select
Range("ColumnF").EntireColumn.Hidden = False
Shapes("Shape1").Rotation = 180
Range("E1").Select
End If

End Sub


Sub ContractColumnF()
If Shapes("Shape1").Rotation = 180 Then
Range("ColumnF").Select
Range("ColumnF").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
Shapes("Shape1").Rotation = 0
Range("E1").Select
End If
End Sub


Sub ColumnF()
ExpandColumnF
ContractColumnF
End Sub

I think all you need is this:

Code:
Sub ExpandColumnF()
'Modified 1-24-18 2:45 PM EST
If ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range("Shape1").Rotation = 0 Then
    ActiveSheet.Range("F1").EntireColumn.Hidden = False
    ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range("Shape1").Rotation = 180
Else
    If ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range("Shape1").Rotation = 180 Then
    ActiveSheet.Range("F1").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
    ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range("Shape1").Rotation = 0
    End If
End If
End Sub
