Range("C4:C" & LastRow).Select ' This will select the column from starting row to Last row of data

Function GetLastRowWithData gives inaccurate results if you have active filters on the worksheet. That is why I have included code to remove active filters from the worksheet before using this function to get last row of data.
Download sample file to check how it works.
There is one more option which gives you satisfactory results
LastRow = Cells.Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
Take care to remove filters before using above code
There are some more options to find last row however are not very reliable as they give you last row of the worksheet irrespective of fact that row could be a empty row.
LastRow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row
or
LastRow = Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row
Select Last Row , Find Last Row , VBA Last Row , VBA Find Last Row , Excel Last Row
