Hello
Can anyone suggest the best approach to add a new line of to a specific
point (specifically in the position of the next blank cell in a particular
column). The line would be a copy of one of the previous ones without any of
the inputted data but keeping all the formula on the line.
I want to do this from a button.
Also is it possible to have a input box appear so the user can input any
required data that will then be added to the new line?
Alot I know but I have not been using Excel much
Thanks
Ian

Mantrid,

If your sheet is in a standard table form (column headings, one row per item, etc), you can
use Data - Form. Normally, a row is added to the end of a table, then the table is sorted
as needed at any time, putting rows where they belong for the immediate need. Be careful
using Excel's Sort -- select either one cell or the entire table -- never a column or any
part of the table other than one cell.

Note: Some folks prefer bottom-posting. But if you bottom-post to a reply that's already
top-posted, the thread gets messy. When in Rome.
