Help with "double" loop!
 

Hi,

I would like to make a loop that fills a cell with a formul
vertically(column index), and then when it reaches the max boundary fo
i(Last specified cell in i) it should 'jump' down a row and begin at th
same column as before. This should be repeated until j(or row index) i
max.
I was thinking something like:

For j = 1 to x
..........
For i = 1 to y
....................
Next i
...........
Next j

However i can't get this to work. Any help will be really appreciated

Help with "double" loop!
 

Cant really see anything wrong with your logic here. Try this example:

Sub loops()

Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer

For x = 1 To 10
For y = 1 To 10
Cells(x, y).Value = x & ", " & y
Next y
Next x

End Sub

Help with "double" loop!
 

Hello,

This should do it. (I always prefer to name variables with meaningful names
rather than single letters, otherwise I would I have used i,j etc)

Sub addBlocksofData()

Dim blocks As Integer
Dim off As Integer
Dim blockCounter As Integer
Dim formulaCounter As Integer
Dim nbrFormula As Integer

blocks = 5
nbrFormula = 6
Range("A1").Select
For blockCounter = 1 To blocks
For formulaCounter = 1 To nbrFormula
Selection.Offset(off, 0).Value = "Formula " & Str(formulaCounter)
off = off + 1
Next formulaCounter
Selection.Offset(off, 0) = "" ' Blank
off = off + 1
Next blockCounter

End Sub

Erikhs,
I think I misunderstood what you were trying to do but you did say you would
like to fill vertically not horizontally
