I know how to use the paste special / format command for things like fonts,
alignment, number formats, etc. But, I've got a sheet whose first 5 rows have had their heights changed in various ways. I need to continue this formatting down the page. (Row 1 height =20, Row 2 height = 40, for instance). In other words, each batch of 5 rows needs to have heights like the first 5 rows. Any easy way to do this? |

Just the rowheights?
You could use a macro: Option Explicit Sub testme() Dim iRow As Long With Worksheets("sheet1") For iRow = 6 To .Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row .Rows(iRow).RowHeight = .Rows(((iRow - 1) Mod 5) + 1).RowHeight Next iRow End With End Sub If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm JoeSpareBedroom wrote: I know how to use the paste special / format command for things like fonts, alignment, number formats, etc. But, I've got a sheet whose first 5 rows have had their heights changed in various ways.

I know just enough about macros to get in trouble, so I'll try this on an
experimental sheet first. Attach this to a button, maybe, and click to my heart's content? "Dave Peterson" wrote in message ... Just the rowheights?

Yep. Remember to use a button from the Forms toolbar and to save before you try
it--or use a test worksheet. JoeSpareBedroom wrote: I know just enough about macros to get in trouble, so I'll try this on an experimental sheet first.

Thanks, Dave. One more question: Let's say I want the macro to look at the
first 5 rows, duplicated them (which your code apparently does already), *BUT* I want it to skip a row before doing its thing? In other words, look at rows 1 through 5, skip row 6, and duplicate onto rows 6 through 11? Can you provide the extra whatever for that? And, where do I send the virtual beer? :-) "Dave Peterson" wrote in message ... Yep. Remember to use a button from the Forms toolbar and to save before you try it--or use a test worksheet.

I don't understand what skip row 6 means and yet the rowheights are duplicated
on 6-11 (6 rows, not 5). Maybe you could give an example--something like: 1-5 "master" row height 6 skipped 7-11 based on 1-5 12 skipped 13-17 based on 1-5 Or whatever the rules are.

Sorry Dave. Posting when too fatigued. Put blank row at 6. Then, 7-11 match
1-5, and so on. "Dave Peterson" wrote in message ... I don't understand what skip row 6 means and yet the rowheights are duplicated on 6-11 (6 rows, not 5).

So all these groups use 1-5 as the basis for the rowheight:
7-11 12-16 17-21 Option Explicit Sub testme() Dim iRow As Long With Worksheets("sheet1") For iRow = 7 To .Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row .Rows(iRow).RowHeight = .Rows(((iRow - 2) Mod 5) + 1).RowHeight Next iRow End With End Sub JoeSpareBedroom wrote: Sorry Dave.

Watch the line wrap:

Thanks, Dave. I'll play with this tonight when the phones finally shut up.
