Check Whether a Range is Empty before Filling first Empty Cell in Range

Hello,
Just starting off by saying thanks to Joe4.

In a prior thread I asked a question on how to fill the first empty cell in a range with the word "done". Joe4 gave the following answer which works great:

<code>
Sub CommandButton4_Click()

Dim dfR As Range

Set dfR = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A13")

If dfR = "" Then
dfR.Value = "Done"
Else

If dfR.Offset(1, 0) = "" Then
dfR.Offset(1, 0).Value = "Done"
Else
dfR.End(xlDown).Select
If Selection.Row < 23 Then
Selection.Offset(1, 0).Value = "Done"
Else
MsgBox "Range A13:A23 is full!"
End If
End If​
End If

End Sub
</code>

I wanted to expand on this by adding a line that first checks whether range A13:I13 is empty
before filling the row. This must be offset with every loop until row A23:I23. I came up with the
following:

<code><code>
Sub CommandButton4_Click()

Dim dfR As Range
Dim rwRng as Range

Set dfR = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A13")
Set rwRng = Sheets("Sheet1").Rows("13:13")

</code>
<code>If rwRng = "" then
</code>
dfR.Value = "Done"​
<code> Else
</code>
If rwRng.Offset(1, 0) = "" Then
<code> dfR.Offset(1, 0).Value = "Done"
</code>
<code> Else
</code>
<code> dfR.End(xlDown).Select
</code>
<code> If Selection.Row < 23 Then
</code>
<code> Selection.Offset(1, 0).Value = "Done"
</code>
<code> Else
</code>
<code> MsgBox "Range A13:A23 is full!"
</code>
<code> End If
</code>
<code> End If
</code>
<code> End If

End Sub
</code></code>
But it does not give the desired result. Can someone please help me?

Regards
Herman

 

Excel Facts

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.
How about
Code:
Sub CommandButton4_Click()

    Dim Cnt As Long
    
    For Cnt = 13 To 23
        If WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("A" & Cnt).Resize(, 9)) = 0 Then
            Range("A" & Cnt).Value = "Done"
            Exit For
        ElseIf Cnt = 23 Then
            MsgBox "Range A13:A23 is full!"
        End If
    Next Cnt

End Sub
