There are two different styles of the "if" statement.

The single line version:
if a=b then something else somethingelse

and the block version:
if a = b then
something
else
somethingelse
end if

Depending on what you're doing (how complex that something and somethingelse
are), you may be able to use that single line. But you can always use the block
version.

And as a personal preference, I find it easier to read and easier to modify when
I need to add more stuff to either the Then or Else portion.

On the other hand, I'll sometimes use:

if target.cells.count 1 then exit sub

So it's not a hard and fast rule for me.

Thanks Dave, I just required the Filtermode function this time, however I
have noticed in both Mike and your replies you have used If and End If where
as I have just used the line 'If ActiveSheet.FilterMode Then
ActiveSheet.ShowAllData', without using the End If statement What is the
difference between the two and when and why should I be using End If.

and then show all data.
