    Need an autoselect macro that is activated by a button

    Hi guys

    I am a medical transcriptionist (in training), and I have two ever-growing lists in an excel workbook (on separate sheets). What I would like to do is be able to plop a button down at the top of the sheet, and have a macro that checks to see where the last row and column of data is, and select it. It also needs to work from a starting point, as I don't want to sort column A, and I don't want to sort the first 4 rows. If anyone could give me advice on how to go about doing this, I would really appreciate it. It would be nice, since I am new to VBA, to actually learn how to do it on my own. So guidance, rather than code, would be great! Thanks

    You can do it simply from the spreadsheet.

    Select the first cell then hold down the CTRL and SHIFT and then press the END button
