Hello All,

I am working on a piece of code that loops through a range of cells and builds a Cell with data. I have the code working fine but I was not sure how to write the code in a way that I could have the code do 4 loops with varying column placement (C = #) . So as a workaround, I just wrote the same code 4 times and simply updated the column that the code looks at. Here is two of the 4 pieces of code so you can see what I mean

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

So 1st Code looks at Column - C = 10
2nd - C = 12
3rd - C = 14
4th - C = 16

Here is the code

Code:

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.

I haven't deciphered all your code, but can't you just do this?

Code: 
    For c = 10 to 16 Step 2

I will give that a shot. I am not super versed in the step syntax but today is a learning kinda day so I will see what happens.

So I entered it into the code but I have a strong feeling I am putting it in the wrong placement of the loop. I moved it around but the it only messed up the output.

Again, I haven't totally figured out your code, but I believe the "r = 7" line should be right after the "For = 10 To 16 Step 2" line. Try stepping through your code using the F8 key to see what works and what doesn't.

Woohoo! I figured it out. With your last comment and stepping thru I was able to spot what needed to change.

The revised working code below. Thanks for your help Eric!
