Hi,

I browsed through all the other posts before posting this. I was hoping it
would be a easy macro, but it doesn't appear to be so I thank anyone that
helps in advance.

What I need is a Macro that will do the following:

1. Look at the data in each cell of Range X6:x361
2. Find "IP/OP Obs"
3. Enter "No IP acuity documented; should have been OP Observation" into the
corresponding cell for that row in column BK

And I need it to loop continuously. In addition I need to prevent the macro
from giving me an error when it comes to a blank cell.

Hi,

Right click your sheet tab, view code and paste the code below in and run
it. Running it all the time isn't practical but you could run it every n
seconds/minutes and to do this have a look at ontime here.

Sub Sonic()
For Each c In Range("X6:X361")
If c.Value = "IP/OP Obs" Then
c.Offset(, 39).Value = "No IP acuity documented; should have been OP
Observation"
End If
Next
End Sub

I haven't had time to test this but this should do the trick:

Sub find_n_replace()
Dim Rng As Range, MyCell As Range
Set Rng = ActiveSheet.Range("X6:X361")
For Each MyCell In Rng
If MyCell.Value = "IP/OP Obs" Then
ActiveSheet.Range("BK" & MyCell.Row).Value = _
"No IP acuity documented; should have been OP Observation"
End If
activesheets.Columns("BK").AutoFit
End Sub

Sorry i forgot the "Next" off the code!

Sub find_n_replace()
Dim Rng As Range, MyCell As Range
Set Rng = ActiveSheet.Range("X6:X361")
For Each MyCell In Rng
If MyCell.Value = "IP/OP Obs" Then
ActiveSheet.Range("BK" & MyCell.Row).Value = _
"No IP acuity documented; should have been OP Observation"
End If
Next MyCell
activesheet.Columns("BK").AutoFit
End Sub
