Find in Excel VBA
If you don't have to reinvent the wheel use
Data ---- Subtotals HTH -Merk 11/25/03 12:37PM I am tearing my hair our about the following: I got a big excel table with dates in the first column and would like to sort all the entries reversely and then create subtotals for each date, which I am doing within a VBA macro. However, I don't seem to be able to select all the data. At present I do something like Range ("A1:J14000").Select because I know there are less than 14000 rows used, but how can I just select all the cells with data in them. (by data I mean for example a non empty date field in the first column). I was trying to use the Find command but had no luck. Any clues? |

selct the first rwo on that colum lets say colum c5 Range ("c5").select ActiveCell.End(xlDown).Select xLastRow= Activecell.row Range("a5:h" & xLastRow).select assuming h is your last colum this will select the range of data you need. -----Original Message----- I am tearing my hair our about the following: I got a big excel table with dates in the first column and would like to sort all the entries reversely and then create subtotals for each date, which I am doing within a VBA macro.

Find in Excel VBA
a slightly different approach that passes over embedded blanks and thus doesn't ignore trailing rows Range("A5:H" & Cells(Rows.Count,"C").End(xlUp).Row).Select -- HTH Bob Phillips ... looking out across Poole Harbour to the Purbecks (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Andres Angel" wrote in message ...
