Steve,

No need to apologize! We just aren't sure of what is happening.

Open a new work book

Copy a few rows ( 4 to 10) from your main workbook into Sheet1 or the new
workbook.
Make sure at least one row in column A has 991CX
Put this code in a module and run it - you should get a message
for each row.

Tell us what happens...

Sub CheckRows()
Dim i As Long
i = 2
Do Until Trim(Cells(i, 1)) = ""
If Cells(i, 1) = "991CX" Then
Msgbox Cells(i, 1).Text & " " Cells(i,1).address
Else
Msgbox Cells(i,1).address & " contains " & cells(i,1).Text & ".end
of text"
End If
i = i + 1
Loop
End Sub

I apologize guys. I am not trying to be a pain. Column A only has Certian
Aircraft tail numbers in it. Column B:G is set up with different sets of
information. I am not sure why. But i can't get this to run.

Steve,

Greg's code should work if any cell in column A contains (only) 991CX
If there is more in the cell, than it won't work.

Have you tried testing the code using the F8 key and stepping through it.
Set up a dummy sheet with some cells in column A = 991CX and see what
happens.
(you only need a few rows).

See if you can locate an error or something and get back to us.

Sub InsertRows()
Dim i As Long
i = 2
Do Until Trim(Cells(i, 1)) = ""
If Cells(i, 1) = "991CX" Then
Cells(i, 1).EntireRow.Insert
i = i + 2
Else
i = i + 1
End If
Loop
End Sub

Have you tested mine? Mine does this.

The value 991CX will not always be in a10. It will always be in
column
A.
Just not always row 10. I am looking for something that will search
col. A
for 991CX, when found, insert a blank row above it. Sorry for the
confusion
guys.

One way is like this:

Sub InsRow()
With Range("A10")
If .Value = "991CX" Then
.EntireRow.Insert
End If
End With
End Sub

otherwise:

Sub InsRow()
If Cells(10, 1).Value = "991CX" Then
Cells(10, 1).EntireRow.Insert
End If
End Sub

Hope this helps

I would like to set up a macro to insert a blank row at specific
spots in a
worksheet. For example, if cell a10 contains 991CX, i would like
to
have a
blank row inserted directly above it. Thanks in advance for any
help you are
able to offer.
