I have to format a report every day that is imported from SQL to Excel. My
problem is that I am stuck on trying to "insert" text descriptions in Column
C based on what is in Column B. The number of rows may vary from day to day
(ie: one day the report is 315 rows and the next it may be 278 or 480). So,
the total range of Col B would extend from (B2:end) on any given day. In
plain language,

If any of the data in Range (B:B) begins with "ML*" insert UPPERCASE "ABC" in
Col C2 or
If any of the data in Range(B:B) begins with "W*" insert UPPERCASE "ABC" in
Col C2... (***the data inserted goes in the cell directly to the right of the
data in cell Bx)

If any data in B2 contains "*105*" or contains "*SR*" or contains "*KBV*" or
contains "*KR*" insert UPPERCASE "DEF" in C2, etc...

Any data left in C2:end not already formatted with any of the above stuff,
"ABC"

I have written a macro to do the initial formatting that gets rid of
subtotals, deletes a column, etc...but cannot go any further with my limited
programming skills, so any code that can do what I want as specified above
will be inserted into the macro I already have. Any assistance would be
appreciated.
