Hi Everyone,

I'm having a hard time getting a loop to work. Basically I need to iterate over the entire population of students in column A and start a loop when a cell says "TestLoop". Within the TestLoop, I want to count the number of times "In" or "Out" occurs and exit after 3 "Outs" occurs. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Column A Column B Column C Column D Column E
Matt In
Abby Out TestLoop
Lebron Out 1
Matt Out 2
Lebron In 1
Abby Out 3
Matt Out
Lebron In TestLoop
Matt Out 1
Jim Out 2
Lebron In 1
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
ok ,here I'm confused about "exit after 3 "Outs" occurs". "

you're taking about which "Outs" ????? with testloop or wihout testloop.

I was confused ... while writing code but anyways you can change according to your need.

I assumed ---column A has NAME
Column B has Remark(in/OUt)
Column C has "Test loop"

Code:
Sub test()
Dim i As Long
Dim k As Long
Dim lstrow As Long
Dim oName As String
Dim oSign As String
Dim oRemark As String
Dim CountIn As Long
Dim CountOut As Long


Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate


lstrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row




For i = 1 To lstrow


  oName = Cells(i, "A").Value
  oSign = Cells(i, "B").Value
  oRemark = Cells(i, "C").Value
  
  
  If StrComp(oRemark, "TestLoop", vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
  
        If CountOut = 3 Then   '''' 3  outs occured
                MsgBox "Target Matched "
               GoTo ExitPoint
        End If
    
            If StrComp(oSign, "In", vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
                CountIn = CountIn + 1
            End If
            
            If StrComp(oSign, "Out", vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
                CountOut = CountOut + 1
            End If
  End If


Next i


ExitPoint:
MsgBox "IN = " & CountIn & vbNewLine & "Out = " & CountOut




End Sub
