Thanks but I need to do this from VB.
Hitting Ctrl and Down Arrow is just the equivalent of this VBA code:
Selection.End(xlDown).Select

If I then hit Ctrl and Up Arrow it is the equivalent of this VBA code:
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
which does stop at the first non-empty row on the way up.

Hello,

I need to find the first empty row in a worksheet. The sheet is just used
to
enter text in, has no formulas.
I have Googled this and I am somewhat confused, there appears to be many
definitions of what is empty and many ways to find the row.
I have found something that seems to work, but I don't quite understand
how
it works

iRow = objCurrentSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)Row

First, it looks like it just looks at column 1.
It looks like it starts at the last row and moves the top of the range up
until it finds something in a cell, but I don't see how it determines when
a
cell contains something.

I need to scan several columns, so even if this code works how would I
expand the area scanned?

I have something that scans entire rows, I could use that but would prefer
to limit the scan to the first n columns, in case someone happened to
enter
something outside the matrix to be used.

Any help would be appreciated.

Ragnar
