Referring to multiple ranges in Excel Macro

Referring to Multiple Ranges in Excel macro:
Using the appropriate method, you can easily refer to multiple ranges in Microsoft Excel. Use the Range and Union methods to refer to any group of Excel ranges.
Using the Range Property
You can refer to multiple Excel ranges with the Range property by putting commas between two or more references. The following example shown in the Excel video clears the contents of three ranges on Excel Sheet1. Sub ClearRanges()
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("a1:b4,e3:f6,c7:d10").ClearContents
End Sub
Note: Macro actions cannot be undone!

Excel Named ranges make using the Range property to work with multiple ranges easier. The following example also shown in the Excel training video works when all three named ranges are on the same Excel sheet.
Sub ClearNamed()
Range("range_a, range_b, range_c").ClearContents
End Sub

Using the Union Method. Try it out!
You can combine multiple Excel ranges into one Range object using the Union method. The following example creates a Range object called myMultipleRange, defines it as the Excel ranges A1:B2 and C3:D4, and then formats the combined Excel ranges as bold.
Sub MultipleRange()
Dim r1, r2, myMultipleRange As Range
Set r1 = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:B2")
Set r2 = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("C3:D4")
Set myMultipleRange = Union(r1, r2)
myMultipleRange.Font.Bold = True
End Sub
