thanks.
that is not the last non blank cell but i have to come down to a particular
cell which needs end(xldonw) 2 or 3 times.
is there something like
<end(xldown)(2)
if know this gives me some other cell i.e. gives me
end(xldown).offset(1,0)

my data is
1
2
3
(two blank cells)

4
5
6
I want to go to 4
<range("a1").end(xldown).end(xldown).select gives 4

I you're trying to select the last non-blank cell in the column then this
would work:

Cells(Rows.Count, ActiveCell.Column).End(xlUp).Select

i have to write
activecell.end(xldown).end(xldown).end(xldown).sel ect

is there easier way of writing this repeated functions.
