Next in the sequence
Tom
Unfortunatley the code maynot be at the bottom because we have a number of differenct code make-ups. Is there anyway of doing the below if the code sit in the middle of the spreadsheet i.e using an if statement... Thanks for trying Marcus "Tom Ogilvy" wrote: Assuming the last populated cell would contain that number Dim rng as Range, nextNumber as Long set rng = Cells(rows.count,"A").End(xlup) nextNumber = "SAT" & clng(Right(rng,len(rng)-3)) + 1 msgbox nextNumber -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Mr M Walker" wrote in message ... VBA Novice Using VBA I want to know what Account code was last iputted (used) in a given sequence within a column so the user know the next number to use (Users are inputting via userforms so cannot see the spreadsheet. Therefore if column A as codes SAT1, SAT2, SAT3 etc I want to able via a msgbx to notify the users that SAT3 was the last Account code to be used and therefore user SAT4 should be used next. Obviously this will only be used when the user hits a command button titled next availble account. Many thanks M Was this post helpful to you |

Next in the sequence
Dim rng as Range, nextNumber as Long
Dim i as Long, inum as Long, maxnum as long maxnum = 0 set rng = Cells(rows.count,"A").End(xlup) for i = rng.row to 2 step -1 inum = clng(right(cells(i,1),len(cells(i,1)-3))) if inum maxnum then maxnum = inum Next nextNumber = "SAT" & maxnum + 1 msgbox nextNumber -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Mr M Walker" wrote in message ...
