Lastrow

Hello all

Is there a difference or efficient way to find the last data in a column of the two. In the Forum I see both methods used.

Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row

Sheets("Sheet1").cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).row

To all intents as purposes, there is no difference as far as speed is concern.

Hello all

Sheets("Sheet1").cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).row

There is a third way (actually, a second way to use the second example)...

Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row

They all do the same thing. There are two ways to specify a single cell... use the Range object and feed it a cell address in quotes or use the Cells object and specify the row and column designation as two separate arguments. I prefer avoiding concatenations when possible as they require execution time on the part of VB's compiler (although not enough to notice for such a simple concatenation), so my preference is to use Cells when the data permits... and my preference between the two methods of using Cells is to specify the column designation using letters instead of numbers as I find that more self-documenting; think...

Cells(Rows.Count, "CS")

as opposed to...

Cells(Rows.Count, 97)
