Hi All,

Is there a way to insert a row below the row you’re on?

I know, you’ll say to go to the row below that one and insert, which inserts a row above and below the row I want. HOWEVER, I can’t go to the row below because it’s likely filtered out.

Currently, I’m unfiltering, finding the row again (why won’t Excel stay on the row I’m on after unfiltering – I digress), go to the row below, add the row above, and filter again . . . very cumbersome when doing it hundreds of times in a 7200-row spreadsheet.

Thanks again,

Michele
 
Michele, I know you already have your answer but here's another VBA solution that was given to me by @Alex Blakenburg. He's very good with VBA. It's a very simple 1 line script that does the exact same thing.

VBA Code:
Sub InsertRow_v2()
ActiveCell.Offset(1).EntireRow.Insert
End Sub

It's a very efficient solution that barely uses any resources (like CPU or memory). Normally this would only matter if it was a long complex script was doing a lot of fancy things in the background but in a case like yours where it's just executing just 1 simple task, you won't notice any difference at all. I'm posting it here in case you want to use it and for others who are still learning VBA like myself.

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
