VB loop
Posted by thomas venn on June 15, 2001 11:53 AM
Hello, I have the macros below. What the macro does is it looks for the word "insert", then deletes it, then it inserts a cell. This macro is useful, but once all the words have been found and deleted, the macro gives me a run-time error. What I want to know is if there is a way for me to tell the macro to stop running once it has found all the words. I am able to count the number of times the word "insert" appears. Maybe there is a way for the VB to tell how many times it should loop by looking at the count number in cell a1?
Thanks for advance.
