The following code shown below is straight from the Excel 2007 msdn
web page on the Range.Count Property. When I select a range on Sheet1
and run the macro a Run-time error '6': Overflow error is generated on
the following line of code:

MsgBox "The selection contains " & Selection.Columns.Count & "
columns."

I am running Excel 2007 SP2 on Windows XP SP2. Any idea what the
problem might be?

Thanks,

fitman

Sub DisplayColumnCount()
    Dim iAreaCount As Integer
    Dim i As Integer

    Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
    iAreaCount = Selection.Areas.Count

    If iAreaCount <= 1 Then
        MsgBox "The selection contains " & Selection.Columns.Count & "
columns."
    Else
        For i = 1 To iAreaCount
            MsgBox "Area " & i & " of the selection contains " & _
            Selection.Areas(i).Columns.Count & " columns."
        Next i
    End If
End Sub
