For i = first_row to last_row
if instr(cells(i, "B")',"a")0 and instr(cells(i, "C"),"1")0 then _
worksheets(othersheet).cells(i, "A")= cells(i, "E") - cells(i, "F")
Next i
The second line in the loop will store your result in the same row on
the target sheet as the source sheet.
For only 400 lines of data the for loop will be very fast.

John,
Perfect! It does the calculation and writes it on the source worksheet.
Now, how can I get it write to another workbook? This one may be a bit tricker, because the workbook I want to write to doesn't always have the same name (it is always open though). This is how it is written (and working) for my other sheets:
Code:
Dim ws As Workbook
If ws.Name Like "*Count*" Then
Windows(ws.Name).Select
Range("C3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = 'write answer here'
When I tried to implement this code into yours, it was posting a value of 0, probably because it lost the values when I switched sheets. Can I store the answer in a variable and then call the variable to write the answer in the cell?
