Default format last row on sheet with VBA macro

Hi!
Is it possible for a macro to format the last row from say A-H in a
worksheet. I can't do this manually since the length of the worksheet changes
from time to time.

Regards Calle

Default format last row on sheet with VBA macro

This should find the last cell in Col A that has an entry. Then changes the
font in column A-H to bold for that row. Modify to use whatever formatting
you wanted.

Sub test()
With Worksheets("Sheet2")
With .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Resize(1, 8)
.Font.Bold = True
End With
End With
End Sub

If which cell has a formula? If the cell in column A

Sub test()
With Worksheets("Sheet2")
With .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)
If Not .HasFormula Then
With .Resize(1, 8)
.Font.Bold = True
End With
End If
End With
End With
End Sub


If you're talking about the cells in Column A-H, format the ones w/o
formulas and skip those w/formulas, then try:

Sub test()
Dim rngCell As Range

With Worksheets("Sheet2")
For Each rngCell In .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Resize(1, 8)
If Not rngCell.HasFormula Then
rngCell.Font.Bold = True
End If
Next rngCell
End With
End Sub


Or do mean something else?

Default format last row on sheet with VBA macro

I meant the row not cell, sorry. The last 50 cells on that sheet have
forumlas but are somtime "empty" exept for the formula of course. So
sometimes I need the format change to occur on rows that has formulas in them
( but looks empty) . Anyway I will try your scrpit.

It didn't work. The macro still wont regard the empty cells with only
formulas in them as empty.

Default format last row on sheet with VBA macro

JMB;
I have tried this code and I get an error and it goes into debug mode. I
have typed the macro exactly as you have it. I did change Sheet2 to Sheet1.
As a side note, how would I default this to the active sheet?
Thanks - Bruce

To work with the activesheet - you can qualify it

Sub test()
With ActiveSheet
With .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Resize(1, 8)
.Font.Bold = True
End With
End With
End Sub

or just use (the post will likely get wrapped funny - there is three lines
in the following macro) and VBA will assume the activesheet

Sub test()
Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Resize(1, 8).Font.Bold = True
End Sub


You would have to copy the code from your macro into a post before I can try
to figure out why it is not working (and the error description and which line
it breaks on would also help) - it runs okay for me. Note there is a period
in front of Cells and Font for the macro(s) that have a With statement.

JMB;
Below is my copied routine. The With statement is highlighted in the debugger.
The spreadsheet has 2 lines of title, 2 blank lines, 1 more title line, a
blank line, and then continuous detail, a blank line or two, and then a final
line. It is possible to have multiple "breaks " of blank lines throughout the
report.
Sub XX()

With ActiveSheet
With .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(x1up).Resize(1, 8)
.Font.Bold = True
End With
End With


Range("A6").Select
End Sub
