Garry,

I failed to mention in my post that I am almost completely unfamiliar
with VBA in Excel. That code I had was Frankenstein-ed together from
bits of code I came across. Therefore, I do not know how to insert my
parameters into your code. Thanks for your help.

I see!
Put your *roughly 40 values* in A1 as a comma delimited list like
this...

11327,11328,11329...

so your list in colA starts in A2. You can modify this layout to suit
your data layout so long as you edit the code to reflect where the
values are stored and where the list begins in colA. (You can store the
values anywhere but it should be in a row *above* where the list
starts.
