Insert Rows with Border Formatting
 

Hi All

I have a macro that inserts a blank row where it finds any text in
column A (code below), is it possible to insert this line with a border
on the top edge for columns A thru to J bearing in mind I have existing
borders to the left and right that I do not want to impact upon (NB the
left edge of column A and the right edge of column J are heavier weights
than the other sides)

Thaks in advance

Sub InsertRows()

With Range("A10:A2499")
On Error Resume Next
Set C = .Find(What:="*", LookIn:=xlValues)
If Not C Is Nothing Then
firstaddress = C.Offset(1, 0).Address
Do
C.Offset(0, 0).EntireRow.Insert
Set C = .FindNext(C)
Loop While Not C Is Nothing And C.Address < firstaddress
End If

End With

End Sub

Insert Rows with Border Formatting
 

This puts a border on the top edge of the inserted row. If that isn't what
you want, then you should be able to adjust the macro. Test it on a copy of
your data.

Sub InsertRows()

With Range("A10:A2499")
On Error Resume Next
Set c = .Find(What:="*", LookIn:=xlValues)
If Not c Is Nothing Then
firstaddress = c.Offset(1, 0).Address
Do
c.Offset(0, 0).EntireRow.Insert
c.Offset(-1, 0).Resize(1, 10) _
.Borders(xlEdgeTop).Weight = xlMedium
Set c = .FindNext(c)
Loop While Not c Is Nothing And c.Address < firstaddress
End If

End With
End Sub

The following modification of your macro should do what you want. HTH
Otto
Sub ksp()
Dim C As Range
Dim firstaddress As String
On Error Resume Next
Set C = Range("A10:A2499").Find(What:="*", LookIn:=xlValues)
On Error GoTo 0
If Not C Is Nothing Then
firstaddress = C.Offset(1, 0).Address
Do
C.EntireRow.Insert
With C.Offset(-1).Resize(, 10).Borders(xlEdgeTop)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.Weight = xlThin
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
Set C = Range("A10:A2499").FindNext(C)
Loop While Not C Is Nothing And C.Address < firstaddress
End If
End Sub
