Macro Autofill Question
 

Hi, I am writing a Macro in (Excel 2003) and I am having trouble with
the Autofill command. First of all I am just copying my movements, not
writing them in VB.

The problem that I am having is that I need the Macro to use the
Autofill command that I am giving it. The reason is I am writing a
Macro for work that will be plugging in data that could be 100 rows, or
2000 rows. I am using the VLOOKUP to pull data on to the sheet and than
Autofill to populate all the rows with the VLOOKUP data.

It works when I run the Macro, but if there were 121 rows of data when I
wrote the Macro, it will only go to 121 rows when I run the Macro.
Which is the problem.

Is there any way to get around this issue with out having to write the
Macro in VB?

Thanks,
Andrew

Macro Autofill Question
 

Give us a small sample of data (say 10 cells of data). Tell us where is the
data (what cells), and where are the cells with the VLOOKUP function?

You post is a little confusing. At the top, you say:
<<...I am writing a Macro in (Excel 2003) ...

....then at the bottom you say:
<<Is there any way to get around this issue with out having to write the

In general, you don't need to use the AutoFill function when programming a
formula into a range of cells using VBA. You simply use the Formula
property with the range of cells you want to fill.

Say you have data in Range("A1:A10"), and you are going to fill in column B
next to the data in column A. You could do this simply by:

Dim rngColB as Range

Set rngColB = ActiveSheet.Range("B1:B10")

rngColB.Formula = "=A1 + 5"

In your case, you would have to use variables to get the number of actual
cells in column A, so that the Set statement would be correct.
