VBA Command - Not Familiar With Program
Martha
There is no "VBA command" to do what you want. It's just a matter of writing a VBA macro that includes the instructions to do what you want. You say you have "that list". What list? Where is it? In what form is the list? Is it a Data Validation list? You say "when a user choses an action from that list". What does he do when he "chooses an action from that list"? Exactly what does he do? Does he click on an item in the "list"? You say "If User chooses "Sample" . .from the list in Row 1". Do you mean that the "list" consists of the entries in Row 1? Like headers perhaps? To insert a number (any number) of rows as a function of the selection made is easy to do. But the devil is in the details. Please post back with more detail.

This little macro will do what you want. I assumed that "Sample" and "Inspect" were all the choices you had in the A1 Data Validation list. If this is not so, this will not work as you want. Post back if that is the case. Note that this macro is a sheet macro for the sheet in which you have that A1 Data Validation list. As such, this macro must be placed in the sheet module of that sheet. To access that module, right-click on the sheet tab, select View Code, and paste this macro into that module. "X" out of that module to return to your sheet. HTH Otto Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Count 1 Then Exit Sub If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then If Target.Value = "Sample" Then Rows(2).Insert Else Rows(2).Resize(3).Insert End If Application.EnableEvents = False Target.ClearContents Application.EnableEvents = True End If End Sub "MarthaSue" wrote in message ...

Thanks Otto for the reply . . my "Notify me of replies" doesn't seem to be working . . .there are about 20 choices in the Data Validation List, not just the two . . .each choice . . will cause a different event . . should i use an event macro . . i was reading up on it . . .Columns 1-7 in Row A1 will contain information that will have to repeat into the next row that is being inserted . . .each choice can cause a different amount of rows to be inserted, some choices will require no rows . . . Basically i don't want the user to have to type in the repeating information (to save time) . . can i still use the one you gave me and modify it a little . . . i would also like to note that there is data after the column containing the validation list . .. .the remaining columns in the row contain dates and formulas based on the action item choosen as well . . the user enters the date the task was completed in the next column after the validation list . . and then the remaining columns are set with formulas to change accordingly (basically due dates for actions that need to be completed based on the action that is choosen) . . .can i send you a copy . . it's so hard to explain . . would make more sense if you could just see it . . .thanks again . . i truly appreciate all the time you given me . . .
