Insert A blank Row Everytime the date changes in column B
I have an xls sheet with 500 rows and 4 columns. In column B is the date for
that particular record. Is there a way that I can have xls insert a blank row everytime it encounters a change in date in colum B. For example I may have 10 records with the date 01-Sep-06, then after those 10 records that date wil be 02-Sep-06 and that may be 5 rows. I want a blank row automatically inserted after each change in date. |

Maybe this:
With your dates in Col_B, with B1 as the column heading Then In the cell to the right of your last column heading enter: DateCopy (I'll assume D1) D2: =B2 copy that formula down as far as you need In cell E1 enter this: DeleteMe Select the data range, including the 2 new columns From the Excel main menu: <data<subtotals At each change in: DateCopy Use Function: Sum Add subtotalto : DeleteMe Click the [OK] button (That will create the subtotals...inserting a blank row whenever the data changes) Now...just delete the DateCopy and DeleteMe columns Is that something you can work with? *********** Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP "Dtown Dawg" wrote: I have an xls sheet with 500 rows and 4 columns.

Sub InsertRow_At_Change()
Dim i As Long With Application .Calculation = xlManual .ScreenUpdating = False End With For i = Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row To 2 Step -1 If Cells(i - 1, 2) < Cells(i, 2) Then _ Cells(i, 1).Resize(1, 1).EntireRow.Insert Next i With Application .Calculation = xlAutomatic .ScreenUpdating = True End With End Sub If not familiar with VBA and macros, see David McRitchie's site for more on "getting started". http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm In the meantime.......... First...create a backup copy of your original workbook. To create a General Module, hit ALT + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor. Hit CRTL + r to open Project Explorer. Find your workbook/project and select it. Right-click and InsertModule. Paste the code in there. Save the workbook and hit ALT + Q to return to your workbook. Run the macro by going to ToolMacroMacros. You can also assign this macro to a button or a shortcut key combo.
