HiI have created a table & in column B I enter a number (i.e 3) is there a way to automatically add 2 rows below the line, so if the number was 5, it would add 4 rows below?RegardsStephen
 
Hi, sbrown64, I read your file.
You need to explain that your data is in actual table & when you say you insert a number in column B you mean you always do it in last row of the table, right?
So basically what you want is adding some rows at the bottom of the table?

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Hi Fluff, no error message.
Akuini if you see the file, what I am doing is entering a football result, so I have a drop down on the end column so I can choose more names if needed. So if I enter 3 in column B then I want 2 extra lines, if I enter 4, I would want 3.

In that case the code from My Aswer Is This works.
I type 3 in B5 & it insert 2 blank rows below it.

Is it possible that the Application.EnableEvents is turned off?
Try running this code:
Code:
Sub toEvent()
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

then try typing a number in B5, then exit the cell.

Another option is
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
   If Target.CountLarge > 1 Then Exit Sub
   If Target.Value < 2 Then Exit Sub
   On Error GoTo Xit
   Application.EnableEvents = False
   If Target.Column = 2 And IsNumeric(Target.Value) Then Rows(Target.Row).Offset(1).Resize(Target.Value - 1).Insert
Xit:
   Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
This will prevent an error if you enter 1 into column B.

hi

I have this code on the sheet1 page.

[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif] Sub Improve()
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.CountLarge > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Target.Value < 2 Then Exit Sub
On Error GoTo Xit
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target.Column = 2 And IsNumeric(Target.Value) Then Rows(Target.Row).Offset(1).Resize(Target.Value - 1).Insert
Xit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
