How do you say in VBE language to go to the last filled cell?
 

Blewyn

This will only work with a contiguous range as it is using the COUNTA
worksheet function which counts non blank cells, so if you have data in
A1:A26 with A16 blank for example, Number_of_rows variable will end up at 25
and so A25 will be activated, when actually it is A26 that is the last cell.

I prefer to use

Sub test()
Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Select
End Sub

You can equally use any properties or methods of the range object, so
replacing Select with Row will return the row number if that is what is
desired.

People have lots of way of doing this so no way is right or wrong, but
generally I have found the way above reliable. (For versions before XL97 you
will need to lower the start row to 16384 to account for less rows in these
versions)

Number_of_rows = WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("A1:A" & Rows.Count))

Cells(Number_of_rows,1).Activate

This is a Cool! Solution!! Anyone reading this thread, forget about my
suggestion; this is much better.

I sure wish it was easier to find things like this in help. Thinking of how
often I have to deal with this problem, I'd think that it's a common problem
for everyone; yet I can never find a thing about it in help.

Thanks!

It is even cooler not to code the 65536 into the solution, but use

Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Select

or

Cells(Rows.Count,"A").End(xlUp).Select
