i use a for each cell in range("L3:L33") statement. the previous code loads
about 40 workbooks, then cycles through 12 sheets using the for each statement.

it searches for an R or an A, can be either throughout the L3:L33 range. most
cells are blank, though. if it finds an R or A, it has to check offset(0,1) for
another value. i need to keep track of the counts of each of the 3.

i have the code working fine, so i don't really need code, just giving some
background on what i am doing. probably takes less than 2 seconds a workbook.

but i was wondering:

would there be a faster way instead of for each cell?

would it be any faster testing for a blank cell and skipping it and going to the
next cell.
