Default Bad Data Somewhere?

Sub HideFinishedEntries()
Dim MyListLength as Long
MyListLength = ActiveSheet.Usedrange.rows.Count
For Each c In ActiveSheet.Range("C2:C" & myListLength)
If c.Text < "" And c.Offset(0,8).Text < "" Or _
c.Offset(0, -1).Text < "" Or _
c.Offset(0, -2).Text < "" _
Then c.EntireRow.Hidden = True
Next
End Sub


Should resolve whatever the problem is.

Excel will automatically convert from long to a string to concatenate the
mylistlength to "C2:C"

O.k. I've got another question already, hopefully it isn't as silly as my

last one which I solved 30 seconds after posting.

Anyways, what I've got is a function that shows only the records I haven't

found a price for yet by hiding all the records that I do have a price for.

Sub HideFinishedEntries()
If ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count Like "??" Then myDigetCount = 2
If ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count Like "???" Then myDigetCount = 3
If ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count Like "????" Then myDigetCount = 4
myListLength = Right(Str(ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count), myDigetCount)
For Each c In ActiveSheet.Range("C2:C" + myListLength)
If c.Value < "" And c.Offset([0], [8]).Value < "" Or c.Offset([0],

[-1]).Value < "" Or c.Offset([0], [-2]).Value < "" Then c.EntireRow.Hidden
= True
Next
End Sub

Simple, right? I think so, but I'm confused because on 2 out of the 8

sheets it completes, meaning it does hide all the appropriate entries, but
gives me a "Type mismatch error" before ending, and the debugger highlights
that massive "IF" line. I don't see anything especially different about
these sheets. They contain the same data types in the same columns, but the
only thing I can think of is that there must be some kinda evil data on
those sheets. Unfortunatly I don't have any idea what would do that, so I
don't know what to look for. Any ideas?
