Asking for help...

I have a worksheet that is used to request flight legs from my aviation department. At the top of the page, the user can enter the total number of legs (1-10) requested for the trip, and that will populate column A with the entered number of legs, and also through VBA, require that certain fields within those requested leg rows be populated before saving. I have been asked to see if it is possible to hide those rows that are not necessary for a given request. Example, I have 10 rows (with borders) available for the maximum of 10 legs requested; if only 2 legs are requested, is there a way to completely hide the remaining 8, thereby reducing the number of pages on which the request will print?

Thank you in advance for any help!
 
Caleeco,
This adjustment to the VBA seems to be exactly what the Dr. ordered!
Yes, I think I did this correctly; I have gone through each cell and confirmed locked vs. unlocked...but it still works the same after I protect the sheet; it allows me to add text to an autoheight cell, but once I click out of that cell and try to return it doesn't allow it. When I subsequently unprotect the sheet and review the locked vs. unlocked again for that cell, it is now showing locked...weird. Not a show stopper for this form as far as I'm concerned; I think the user can make reasonable accommodation by using this form as a master and "Saving As" right off the bat, so if they make a mistake, they would always have the master document on which to fall back. I greatly appreciate your help with getting this to where it is...you have been an outstanding and very patient resource!!

Thank You,
B Squared
