Thanks but the first if always returns true

I have the following:

Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
For Each cell In Range("A1:A50")
If IsEmpty(cell) Then
startdate = Date
Else
startdate = cell
End If

My worksheet has data in row A1 and A2.

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks again

bal = Receipts - (wks * Amount)
Next

Hi

I want to be able to calculate a figure based on the no. of weeks
between
a
range of dates.

eg.
Records:
Date From Date To Amount
3/11/03 17/11/03 120
18/11/03 7/12/03 130
8/12/03 - 150

If the date to field is blank then today's date is to be used

At the moment I have the following:

startdate = "24/11/2003"
Set fromsheet = ActiveSheet
Receipts = fromsheet.Cells(6, 3)
wks = DateDiff("ww", startdate, Now)
bal = Receipts - (wks * 120)

This works fine if the amount is always 120 and the start date is always
24/11/2003.
How can I change it so that
bal = the addition of No. of weeks between each date in the table * the
applicable amount?

The # of records will always be increasing - somehow I need to be able
to
calculate each record separately

Thanks
