Hello everyone,
i am new to vba and excel. In column A i have 47000 rows, i want to
loop through this column and if cell1 does not equal cell2 i want to
add a row between cell1 and cell2. I cannot figure out how to do this..
can anyone help me please??/
Thanks,
Erin

Erin,
Try this (on some test data first!)

Sub InsertRows()

Dim lastrow as long, r as long

lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row

For r = lastrow To 2 Step -1

If Cells(r, 1) < Cells(r - 1, 1) Then
Cells(r, 1).Insert shift:=xlDown
End If

Next r

End Sub

Ok but how do i insert a full row, i have 8 columns and i want to
insert the row across all of the columns.
Thanks so much!!!

if you only want to insert a blank cell in column A (or whatever column you
adjust it to operate on), then you have a solution. I f you actually want
to insert a blank row, change

Cells(r,1).Insert Shift:=xldown
to

rows(r).Insert

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Sub InsertRows()
Do Until ActiveCell.Value = ""
If ActiveCell.Value < ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Value Then
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Current_Row = ActiveCell.Row
Rows(Current_Row).Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Else
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
End If
Loop
End Sub

Try that out

Thanks Tom. The OP did say insert row so the error was mine!
