GS,
Technique question:
Why, on the "Next" line, do you comment out the counter variable that you
are looping on? I've not commented out, and have had the VBE help me out when
I might be using nested loops.

Ron,
Just something I picked up from the Classic
VB crowd. It falls in the
same bucket as the dif using Mid() and Mid$(), and how
VB handles this
at runtime. Sorry, but I can't give you technical details about these
without going back over a few years of posts. I include the comment for
notation purposes so I know which counter is repeating in nested or
long loops. Otherwise, I don't see any problem with leaving the
apostrophe out if desired. My choice to use it was formed a long time
ago because I didn't want to lose the notation. (You'll see other code
samples that use a similar technique for Select Case, If, While, and Do
constructs as well. I also do similar for end of procedures because
it's helpful when reading through modules in a text editor outside the
VBE.
