Default killing a sub from within an if statement

I think I see what're saying. I'm not real refined yet, and often do things
in a kludgy way. I see where you are denying the loop after it's run
through all code in the loop and the code would progress from there - and of
course, good programming would have all objects and variables tied up
anyway. My thought was that if there is code after where the kill
statement would go that the OP did not want to run, the GoTo would drop past
all that into the clean-up at the end. Maybe not the best way to accomplish
that, but like I said - not real refined yet.

Why the Goto? The loop will exit when the flag is false and the sub you

can
terminate any objects through normal execution. This is kind of the point

to
the boolean. You don't just exit the sub. You complete whtever code is
necessary.

Be careful of objects and variables not properly terminated when you

Exit
Sub. I would personally lean towards Jim's method of using a Boolean

and
throw in a GoTo:
If Boolean = True Then GoTo StopMe
....
....
StopMe:
Terminate all variables
Terminate all objects
End Sub

No need then for Exit Sub, and everything's nice and neat (hopefully).

Thanks folks. I knew it was simple, I just don't have the brains.

How about 'Exit Sub'?

I am trying to stop a sub from continueing once a set of values

i.e.
null in
2 cells is attained. Can anyone help me?

Range("A4:w4").Select
Do Until ActiveCell.Value = ""
'Moves #1 PM info down until date matches #4 PM date

If ActiveCell.Value < ActiveCell.Offset(0, 12).Value Then
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 12).Resize(, 11).Insert shift:=xlDown
MsgBox "Loop #1 Column A < Column M"

'If #4Pm's date is greater then #1 PM's date then shift #4 down.
ElseIf ActiveCell.Value ActiveCell.Offset(0, 12).Value

Then
ActiveCell.Resize(, 12).Insert shift:=xlDown
MsgBox "Loop #2 Column A Column M
End If

If ActiveCell.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 12).Value And
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 12).Value = "" Then
MsgBox "A = M AND M = Blank"
Kill statement needs to go here
End If

ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select

Loop

End Sub
