Hello!

I need help with some macro coding, as I am new to it.

Here is the basic breakdown:
I have 50 rows of data space.
Some rows do not have date.
I need to hide the rows which don't have data.
If I could code it by dictation, I would say "If A2 is empty, hide the row.
Do the same for A3 through A50"

Any suggestions??

Hi Catherine,

Try:

'=============
Public Sub Tester()
Dim rng As Range

Set rng = ActiveSheet.Range("A2:A50") '<<==== CHANGE

On Error Resume Next
rng.SpecialCells(xlBlanks).EntireRow.Delete
On Error GoTo 0

End Sub
'<<=============

Hi Catherine,

As you are not familiar with macros, you may wish to visit David McRitchie's
'Getting Started With Macros And User Defined Functions' at:

http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm

You might also look at David's tutorials page at:

http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel....htm#tutorials

The VBA tutorial information is towards the end of that section.

Hi Catherine,

rng.SpecialCells(xlBlanks).EntireRow.Delete

Should read:

rng.SpecialCells(xlBlanks).EntireRow.Hidden = True


The first (erroneously) deletes the blank rows; the second hides these rows,
as you requested!

One way:

Sub HideRows()
Dim i As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For i = 2 To 50
If Range("A" & i).Value = "" Then
Range("A" & i).EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
Next 'i
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
