find a non-empty cell
 

Dear experts,
what is the quickest VBA way to determine in a big cells range if at least
one of them is non empty?
Many thanks for your help!
Best regards

Hi,

This tells you the empty cells in a range and you can modify this easily to
tell you how many cells are not empty


If WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("A1:c1000")) = _
Range("A1:C1000").Cells.Count Then
MsgBox "No empty cells"
Else
num = Range("A1:C1000").Cells.Count - _
WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("A1:c1000"))
MsgBox num & " Empty cells in range"
End If

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

You didn't have to set the Find call to a variable before testing for data
in the range; this works the same way your code does...

If Not Selection.Find("*") Is Nothing Then MsgBox "Data exist in the range"
