Hello Scott,

I am not sure why it didn't work for you.  Perhaps there are merged or split
cells in the worksheet preventing the action.  Another method you can try is
to move to the column just after the Names column, press the application
key, arrow down to the insert menu item, press enter, and arrow down to the
column to the left radio button or choice and press enter key.  You can then
move to the column you want to move, select it using CTRL+spacebar, cut
using CTRL+X move to the new empty column and paste using CTRL+V.  Again
though, if there are merged cells this can cause some problems.  The first
method should have worked though so there might be something like merged
cells.  

In the method I mentioned in my previous message the keystroke of
CTRL+Shift+= is the command for inserting cut cells.  If you want to try
without using the keystroke then move to the column to the right of Names
(after selecting and cutting the information to be inserted) and use the
application key instead.  There will be a choice for inserting cut cells.
However, if merged cells exist it might not work.  I can't think of any
other reason it isn't working for you.  Perhaps someone else can offer a
resolution.  If you want to send me a copy of the worksheet I will be happy
to check it out as well.  My Email is [email protected]
  
Take care.

Hi Brian
 Thanks but I get a error message saying the cell is not big enough .
Thoughts? was it my imagination that you could do a column move in 2003
excel by selecting move?
 Scott

Hello Scott,

Select the column you want to move by using CTRL+Spacebar.  Cut the column
by using CTRL+X.  Move to the column currently after the Names column and
use the insert command of CTRL+Shift+=.  The column being moved should
appear between the Names column and the column that previously followed the
Names column.      

I hope it works for you.

Take care..

Hi
 Can you move columns  in a worksheet so they are in the order you want them
in? if not what do you suggest?
 have a spreadsheet from someone else that addresses are not near names
wanted to move them to right after the name column.
Regards
Scott
