[mso] Excel 2002 Macro Help

Hi all, I'm working on a complex macro to perform a  number of tasks
that I need to do to compare some data.  One of the things I need it to
do, is go to the specified worksheet, and insert a column to the left of
Column A.  This is what I have so far:
Sheets("Previous PP").Select
    ActiveCell.Columns("A:A").EntireColumn.Select
    Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight

What it is doing however, is inserting the column to the left of
whatever cell the cursor happens to be in.  So I added an additional
line so this portion of the macro looks like this now:
 
    Sheets("Previous PP").Select
     Range("A1").Select
    ActiveCell.Columns("A:A").EntireColumn.Select
    Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight

Is this the best way to do this?  I realize my macro is probably not
written the most efficient way, but I started with recording the macro,
since I'm new to this, and modifying it to meet my needs and to be more
efficient as I learn more.

Thanks,
