Hello,

I have a spreadsheet with 4 columns and 100's of records. Column 3 contains sequential numbers. Every so many records (unknown number) column 3 skips up to 4 records, in other words it might go 1,2,3,5,6,7,11,12, etc. How can I add an extra row to account for the missing records? Obviously I'm looking for VB code or Macro because I have several spreadsheets with the same issue. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Following is a screen shot of the file.

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
alortiz,


Welcome to the MrExcel forum.


Sample raw data (if your raw data contains titles in row 1, or if the raw data begins in a different row, I will have to adjust the macro):


Excel Workbook
CDEF
1154567NA11
2154568NA21
3154570NA41
4154571NA51
5154572NA61
6154574NA81
7154576NA101
8154577NA111
9154578NA122
10154580NA141
11154581NA151
12154583NA173
13154584NA182
14154585NA191
15
Sheet1





After the macro:


Excel Workbook
CDEF
1154567NA11
2154568NA21
3154569
4154570NA41
5154571NA51
6154572NA61
7154573
8154574NA81
9154575
10154576NA101
11154577NA111
12154578NA122
13154579
14154580NA141
15154581NA151
16154582
17154583NA173
18154584NA182
19154585NA191
20
Sheet1





Please TEST this FIRST in a COPY of your workbook (always make a backup copy before trying new code, you never know what you might lose).

1. Copy the below code, by highlighting the code and pressing the keys CTRL + C
2. Open your workbook
3. Press the keys ALT + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor
4. Press the keys ALT + I to activate the Insert menu
5. Press M to insert a Standard Module
6. Where the cursor is flashing, paste the code by pressing the keys CTRL + V
7. Press the keys ALT + Q to exit the Editor, and return to Excel
8. To run the macro from Excel, open the workbook, and press ALT + F8 to display the Run Macro Dialog. Double Click the macro's name to Run it.


Code:
Option Explicit
Sub InsertRows()
' hiker95, 01/27/2012

Dim lr As Long, r As Long, cv As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
For r = lr To 2 Step -1
  If Range("C" & r - 1).Value <> Range("C" & r).Value - 1 Then
    cv = Range("C" & r).Value
    Rows(r).EntireRow.Insert
    Range("C" & r).Value = cv - 1
    r = r + 1
  End If
Next r
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub


Then run the InsertRows macro.
