Thank you for your reply, but i need in VBA code

 

[Fluff]

In that case

Sub GirishDhruva()
   Range("G3").Value = [=SUM(INDEX(A2:E19,0,MATCH(G1,A1:E1,0)))]
End Sub

 

[GirishDhruva]

Thanks again sir but i think i have not asked question clearly,My question is "first i need to find the column with the name 'Ball' then it should add with that column values and give me the sum"

 

[Fluff]

If you want to hard-code the column header try

Sub GirishDhruva()
   Range("G3").Value = [=SUM(INDEX(A2:E19,0,MATCH("Ball",A1:E1,0)))]
End Sub

 

[GirishDhruva]

Thank you ...............It worked

 

[GirishDhruva]

If you want to hard-code the column header try

Sub GirishDhruva()
   Range("G3").Value = [=SUM(INDEX(A2:E19,0,MATCH("Ball",A1:E1,0)))]
End Sub

Thanks again , how to copy the column by finding the column name

 

[Fluff]

Try

Sub chk()
   Dim Fnd As Range

   Set Fnd = Range("1:1").Find("Ball", , , xlWhole, , , False, , False)
   If Not Fnd Is Nothing Then Fnd.EntireColumn.Copy
End Sub
