Default Find blank cell in range

Put these two functions in your standard module1. Then to use them in your
code:


Dim lc As Long, lr As long
lc = ActiveSheet(Lastcol)
lr = ActiveSheet(lastRow)

Functions below:

Function lastRow(sh As Worksheet) 'Finds last cell with data in the last
used row.
On Error Resume Next
lastRow = sh.Cells.Find(What:="*", After:=sh.Range("A1"), _
LookAt:=xlPart, LookIn:=xlFormulas, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=False).Row
On Error GoTo 0
End Function
Function Lastcol(sh As Worksheet) 'Finds last cell with data in the last
used column.
On Error Resume Next
Lastcol = sh.Cells.Find(What:="*", After:=sh.Range("A1"), _
LookAt:=xlPart, LookIn:=xlFormulas, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=False).Column
On Error GoTo 0
End Function

I have a variable range, D4: to either- Q, R, S, or T4

I find that range with



lastCol = Range("D4").End(xlToRight).Select



Then I name MyRange in row 5



ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select

Set endcell = ActiveCell

Set MyRange = Range("D5:" &
endcell.Address)



This seems to work (maybe not the best way?)



The cells in MyRange have values that could be from 0 to 100.



I need to search through each cell in MyRange until it finds one that has
no value (blank cell, not a 0 value) If a blank cell is found, I want a
msgbox to tell me.



(I don't even need to know where it is. It just lets me know that all
values are not entered yet and lets me work with the values that are.)



Once one empty cell is found, the msgbox displays, the search stops, and
goes to the rest of my sub. If none is found the sub just continues.



I thank you great people in advance
