Hiding Columns help !

HYCH

Have Columns of Data in a spreadsheet, Column D (4) is the starting
column and Column AX (50) has the last of the data, these cells in
this range contain single letters denoting a shift worked, have what i
thought would enable me to hide columns that were differents letters
and only display the ones that had the letter "A" in them, but get
error.

Works fine if i am hiding rows with some changes to it, ie beginrow
rather than beginCol, any help would be appreciated.

Sub TextBox3_Click()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
beginCol = 4
EndCol = 50
ChkRow = 2
For ColCnt = beginCol To EndCol
If Cells(ColCnt, ChkRow).Text <> "a" Then
Cells(ColCnt, ChkRow).EntireCol.Hidden = True
Else
Cells(ColCnt, ChkRow).EntireCol.Hidden = False
End If
Next ColCnt
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Modify this idea to suit such as
for i=50 to 4 step -1

Sub hidecolsifnota()
For i = Cells(2, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column To 1 Step -1
If LCase(Cells(2, i)) <> "a" Then Columns(i).Hidden = True
Next i
End Sub

Cells(ColCnt, ChkRow).Text

The row number should be first.
