If... then... Else statement
Morning all
I have three sheets that I am trying to format. The formatting follows a search by description and then formats that row. In the first sheet, I have to change one description and then carry on the formatting. But in the next two sheets that description doesn't appear. I'm pretty inexperienced to Macros, so how would I "ask" the following question of it? If I find "tax-benefits in kind" change the description to "tax in kind" and then carry on to find "salaries" and "expenses" and format them as usual But If I can't find "tax-benefits in kind" just carry on and format "salaries" & "expenses" as usual. At the moment I have the following: If Cells.Find(What:="TAX-BENEFITS IN KIND", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:= _ xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext _ , MatchCase:=False).Activate = False Then Range("A1").Select ElseIf Cells.Find(What:="TAX-BENEFITS IN KIND", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:= _ xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext _ , MatchCase:=False).Activate = True Then ActiveCell.Value = "TAX-BENFITS IN KIND" Range("A1").Select End If Cells.Find(What:="SALARIES", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn _ :=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:= _ xlNext, MatchCase:=False).Activate Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select thisrow = Selection.Row With Range(Cells(thisrow, 1), Cells(thisrow, 11)).Borders(xlEdgeTop) .LineStyle = xlContinuous .Weight = xlThin .ColorIndex = xlAutomatic End With With Range(Cells(thisrow, 1), Cells(thisrow, 11)).Borders(xlEdgeBottom) .LineStyle = xlContinuous .Weight = xlThin .ColorIndex = xlAutomatic End With So in a nutshell, I want it to find "Tax-Benefits in kind" and change to "Tax in Kind" and then format "salaries" but if "Tax-Benefits in kind" doesn't appear then ignore the change of name and just go on to format salaries. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!! Mike |
