Default Test if the range is empty

I would say you are asking it to do something beyond its
design specs. I can't give you the technical explanation,
but the help file says IsEmpty only works on Variant variables.
The fact that it works on single cells is just a nice bonus.
For what it's worth, I usually use Len to check a single cell.

Jim - I opened a new workbook - made no entries into sheet1 (the
activesheet)..

From the immediate Window I entered:
set rng = Activesheet.Range("G1:G5")
? rng.address
$G$1:$G$5
? isempty(rng)
FALSE << WHY???
TIA,
Jim

Application.CountA(rngToBeFilled)
(you don't need to select the range)

I need a VBA code to ensure the range to be filled, is empty to begin.
I will select the range, test if the range is empty, then proceed
accordingly.
Thanks
