This code almost does what I need, but I'm stuck.
When I run this each cell that matches increments by two. I want to
keep the same value for the whole row. Then drop a row and increment by
two on the next row.

Example:
(Do not want)
Pack112 Pack114 Pack116
(Do want)
Pack112 Pack112 Pack112
Pack114 Pack114 Pack114

i = 112
For Each CELL In Range("A1:DD267")
If CELL.Value = "PACK" Then
i = i + 2

CELL.Value = "PACK" & CStr(i)

If i 140 Then i = 0

End If
Next CELL

Thanks

Hi
a little bit kludgy but give it a try

Sub foo()
Dim i
Dim row_count
Dim cell
Dim rng

i = 112
Set rng = Range("A1:DD267")
row_count = rng.Row
For Each cell In Range("A1:DD267")
If row_count < cell.Row Then
row_count = cell.Row
i = i + 2
End If
If cell.Value = "PACK" Then
cell.Value = "PACK" & CStr(i)
End If
If i 140 Then
i = 0
End If
Next cell
End Sub

Confused,

How about this

i = 112
For Each row In Rows("1:267")
For Each cell In row.Columns("A:D")
If cell.Value = "PACK" Then
cell.Value = "PACK" & CStr(i)
End If
Next cell
i = i + 2
If i 140 Then i = 0
Next row

Thanks for the help Frank, I'm almost there. It is incrementing properl
but it is going backwards? It begins counting at 136
and if there are any rows without values it is incrementing the rows a
if the values were there

PACK112 PACK112 PACK112 PACK112 PACK112 PACK112
PACK114 PACK114 PACK114 PACK114 PACK114 PACK114
PACK116 PACK116 PACK116 PACK116 PACK116
PACK118 PACK118 PACK118 PACK118
empty row
empty row
empty row
PACK128 PACK128 PACK128 PACK128 PACK128
PACK130 PACK130 PACK130 PACK130

Is there a way to make it only count on rows that have data

Hi
in my test it started with 112?. Does your data start in row 1 or a
different one?
For the second part to skip empty rows I adapted Bob's solutions (as it
was IMHO the better one):

Sub foo3()
Dim i
Dim row As Range
Dim cell As Range
Dim row_entry As Boolean
row_entry = False
i = 112
For Each row In Rows("1:267")
For Each cell In row.Columns("A:D")
If cell.Value = "PACK" Then
cell.Value = "PACK" & CStr(i)
If Not row_entry Then row_entry = True
End If
Next cell
If row_entry Then
i = i + 2
If i 140 Then i = 0
row_entry = False
End If
Next row
End Sub
