Default A macro written by a macro

Hi,
This was unfortunately not the problem - I had already used the underscore
to break the line, it still does not work and gives me the syntax error... do
you know why?
Many thanks in advance,
best regards,
Valeria

Space Underscore to break a line ( _)

.InsertLines StartLine, "If Intersect(Target, Me.Range("a1:a100")) Is _
Nothing Then"

Put "" around the exact code you want written to the line.

Hi Frank,
it does not seem to work: I get a syntax error on this line

.InsertLines StartLine, "If Intersect(Target, Me.Range("a1:a100")) Is
Nothing Then"

I actually have the problem with this module writing code that I do not

know
where to break the lines and put the ""... I always seem to get these

syntax
errors...

Thank you,
Best regards,
Valeria

Is
Nothing Then"
.InsertLine Startline+1, "Exit sub"
.insertLine,startline+2, "End if"

still I do
not understand how to write my code (I am not very good at it! :-)
