I know how to and often want to insert a row BELOW the last row instead of
above it. I keep thinking there must be a simple way to do this. I have put
in dummy rows, but that is cumbersome and I want other people to use the
workbook I am working on now. This is frustrating. Also, 2nd question, in
case you tell me to insert programming, I often see responses that say insert
a module, but I don't know how to do that and could not find anything on MS
Help. Thanks for your help.

If it is the last row, why would you want to insert a row below that?

Should already be blank rows below "last row".

But.........this macro will insert a row below last filled cell in the
activecolumn.

Sub insert_row()
ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, ActiveCell.Column).End(xlUp) _
.Offset(1, 0).EntireRow.Insert
End Sub

If not familiar with VBA and macros, see David McRitchie's site for more on
"getting started".

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 or edit the macro by going to ToolMacroMacros.

You can also assign this macro to a button or a shortcut key combo.
