Can Excel Top Gun here help a rookie out and let me know if there are a better/faster way to perform the same action?
This code works, but its slow and can take around 3-4 minutes on a laptop with i7 12th Gen processor & 64Gb RAM.

The process is to hide the entire row if the respective cell in Column A is blank, then set the row height to 40 of any cells in column A where the text string is greater than 60 characters.

VBA Code:
Sub CollateCOSHHSheets()

Dim r As Range, c As Range
Set r = Range("B5:B2208")
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each c In r
If c.Value = "" Then
c.EntireRow.Hidden = True
Else
c.EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If
Next c

Dim lngLastRow As Long
    Dim lngLoopCtr As Long
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    lngLastRow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
    For lngLoopCtr = 1 To lngLastRow Step 1
        If Len(Cells(lngLoopCtr, "A")) > 60 Then
            Cells(lngLoopCtr, "A").RowHeight = 40
        End If
    Next lngLoopCtr
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
 
No response, so I have included the code I came up with that should be pretty close.

Hi Johnny,

How could this code be amended to set the row height of "B33" to 40, as well as every row offset from B33 by 29 rows, upto the end of the data at Row 2208?

Thanks Johnny, this works but there is an issue with the blank sheets when all rows in the offset range are set to 40.
I forgot these rows being changed has a signature image in column B, so when the row height is set, all the signatures on every sheet show because the associated row is now 40 high.

Can this be modified so that it only performs the row height change if there is a value in the previous cell in column B?
The cell before the signature box has text determined by an IF function. The true value of the IF function means the cell is "", and the false value of the IF function means there is text in the cell.

Therefore, if the row height is only set to 40 when the previous cell has text, then this would mean all blank sheets would stay completely hidden and only sheets with data would show.

i.e.
Set Row Height for Cells B33, B62, B91, B120, B149,........B2208 = 40, If the cell before it has a value (text string) -->B32, B61, B90, B119, B148........B2207 = "Text String"

But, If the cell before it has no text string value (has formula but blank), skip the row height change.

Hope that makes sense.

I really appreciate your help with this.

Thank you so much Johnny, this works great.
Do you have any idea why even though all the lines get hidden and I can only see the sheets I need on the actual tab, when I goto print preview, all the hidden sheets are showing as a blank page. So I can see all 76 pages when I only need to see the pages which are not hidden?
