Hi
My sheet is laid out as follows,
A1 Unit1
A5 Unit2
A9 Unit3
etc. through A21Unit6

As a new unit is added the cellis changed to the actual unit name. The 3
lines after each unit are associated with that particular unit.I need code
that when run will hide the rows for any units that havent been named.
Example
A1= Dog
A5 = Cat
units 3-6 have not been added. When the macro is run I want to hide rows
9-24.
I hope I have provided enough information
All help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Bobby,
Will this suffice?

Public Sub HideUnNamed()
Dim I As Long
For I = 1 To 21 Step 4
If Cells(I, 1).Value = "" Then
Range(Cells(I, 1), Cells(I + 3, 1)).EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
Next I
End Sub

Hi Bobby,
I don't think it works because the unnamed cells aren't blank, they
have "Unit#", so try...

Public Sub HideUnNamed()
Dim I As Long
For I = 1 To 21 Step 4
If Left(Cells(I, 1).Value, 4) = "Unit" Then
Range(Cells(I, 1), Cells(I + 3, 1)).EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
Next I
End Sub

That works great. How would I modify to assign to a button and toggle
show/hide?
Thanks!

I would assign the macro to a button from the Forms toolbar.
Go ViewToolbarsForms then click on the button button then click on
the worksheet.
Right click the buttonAssign macro etc
Right Click the button to Edit its caption
If you want toggling to occur it will take a bit more code, which I'll
have to look into.

Hi Bobby,
for toggling show/hide try this macro:

Public Sub ShowHideUnNamedToggle()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim I As Long
Dim Hidden As Boolean
For I = 1 To 24
If Rows(I).EntireRow.Hidden Then
Hidden = True
Rows(I).EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If
Next I
If Hidden Then Exit Sub
For I = 1 To 21 Step 4
If Left(Cells(I, 1).Value, 4) = "Unit" Then
Range(Cells(I, 1), Cells(I + 3, 1)).EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
Next I
End Sub

Assign macro to a button from the Forms toolbar, add the caption
"show/hide"

GoodLuck
