You need the value of shortest in the Select, not just a string.

Instead of:

Rows("shortest:shortest").Select

use:

Rows(shortest & ":" & shortest).Select

i have a vba code included the following:
shortest = count(1)
For r = 1 To 200
If count(r) < shortest And count(r) 0 Then
shortest = count(r)
End If
Next
* * Rows("shortest:shortest").Select
* * Selection.Cut
* * Rows("1:1").Select
* * Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown


However, when i try to run the code, the debugger promt an error
message said :typemismatchand then highlight the code:
Rows("shortest:shortest").select.
I declared "shortest" as variant.


Can any pro point out my mistake?Thank you very much- Hide quoted text -

Sorry, i found that the code is a bit weird and unstable. i try to run
it at the first time, it works. However, i try to run second time, it
prompt out the "type mismatch" error message again
