Default how does a macro use an inputbox ?

I have a table which varies in length from 2 rows to 650 rows. There are
always 14 columns. I have a macro which formats the columns and adds a total
line to the last line of the table + 1. The columns have different formats,
so they need to be formatted one by one so using the macro is quicker and
easier. If I use RowNr = InputBox ("input the row number for the totals) in
the macro I can get the RowNr into the code, but how can I use it, Rownr, to
define a particular row or cell, please ?

RowNr = InputBox("Row Number")
Rows(RowNr).Columns(2).Interior.ColorIndex = 3

and so on...

For example:

Range("A1").Offset(RowNr,0).Value = SomeValue

That's the problem, the spreadsheet (or code) doesn't know which line is the
last line +1 for the totals so up to now I have been setting the macro to
put the totals on line 650 irrespective of the number of rows in the table,
and then (afterwards) manually deleting the blank rows before I print the
table. I know how to count the rows, and how to input the number using
InputBox, but I don't know how to use it in a line of code which needs to
refer to a particular cell or several columns (but not all in the line)

thanks ... Roger

Why would you do it that way? If you have a line that creates the totals
then excel will already know the row.. Perhaps you should copy/paste your
code here for improvements.

Default how does a macro use an inputbox ?

Sorry if I've been difficult. The code is below. The table is comprised of
41 columns of which some contain dates, some text, and some numbers. Plus at
strategic points in the table the columns have borders. Because I do not
know in advance how many rows are involved the borders are done as part of
the macro on a column basis without defining the number of rows. But then
some of the borders have to be removed so that the print looks okay after
the total line has been inserted. In the macro below I have arbitrarily
selected row 460 to be the header row, because I don't know how to make it
an inputbox or, alternative, to get the spreadsheet to calculate the last
row itself. So I have been running the macro, and then manually deleting
blank rows between the last data row and the header row 460. So now I'm
trying to do it properly and learn as well !!!

thanks for all of your help, it is appreciated ... Roger

just to turn the problem upside down and confuse everyone, would it be
better to have your totals row at the top of the table and base each of
those totals on dynamic ranges for each of the columns below?

if you always have 14 columns i can't understand why you need vba to set
their formatting. why not pre-set it or use conditional formatting?

i agree, posting your code would help alot!
