Here's what I've hacked together that doesn't work:

Sub TryNow()
Dim myCount As Integer
Dim StartRow As Integer
Dim myCell As Range
myCount = 0
For Each myCell In Range("C2", Range("C30").End(xlUp))
StartRow = myCell.Row
If myCell.Value < myCell(2, 1).Value Then
StartRow = StartRow - myCount
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
Range(("A" & StartRow), ("Q" & StartRow + myCount)).Select
With Selection.Interior
.ColorIndex = 34
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
myCount = 0
Else
myCount = myCount + 1
End If
Next myCell
End Sub

I plan to hack into it when this much gets working and add a condition of

"If the First cell in column K of this set does not contain 'Yadda-Yadda'"
to be the limiting component of the sets.

The objective here is to find the rows of data for individuals who don't
have the qualifying text in the First row, Column K, and then select all the
rows for that individual and highlight them.

A little help is needed once more -- all contributions gratefully received.

Dave,

It will be easy to do once you explain it a little better. I have no idea what you mean by:

"The objective here is to find the rows of data for individuals who don't
have the qualifying text in the First row, Column K, and then select all the
rows for that individual and highlight them."

Perhaps an example would be appropriate...

Sorry, folks, it was the .Row thing I was having trouble with, and once I
learned that I was using it correctly, I was able to step through the Macro
and see what's going on. I think I'm onto its taail now, so thanks for being
there, and wanting to help, and sorry for wasting your time on this one.

Worry not, I shall return <g!
