Default need help with formatting data collected from database...


Hi,
I couldn't get the search tool to work on this forum, so hopefully I'm
not repeating a previously asked question...
This is probably an easy solution to solve, but I have had very limited
experience working with VBA and excel macros.
At the moment, I have a macro that gathers data from a database and
then displays it on a worksheet. The macro also formats a border around
the data. At the moment, the code looks a bit like this:

With Range("A4:AB1000")
With .Borders(xlEdgeLeft)
..LineStyle = xlContinuous
..Weight = xlMedium
..ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
With .Borders(xlEdgeTop)
..LineStyle = xlContinuous
..Weight = xlMedium
..ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
End With

and so on for some more border types. What I would like to do, would be
rather than have the line "With Range("A4:AB1000"), I'd like to replace
"AB1000" with a variable that accounts for the amount of rows of data
that is pulled out of the database, as the database is constantly
changing, and I suspect I will need much more than 1000 rows to be
formatted in the future.

Hope someone can help !
Thanks,
Mandy
