My mind is blank to night.... trying to do to many things.... first what is the correct code for dim my4thQtrRefund as string my4thQtrRefund = range(aj5).value 'what ever the value in that cell (as it goes down the 1000 rows) the the row number will keep changing Can somebody give me a refresher on the do....loop... until I need for the macro to go down a column (say approx 1000 rows) and if my4thQtrRefund >= "15" offset(0,-1).clearcontents 'offset one column to the left else do nothing end if Ok.... once the refund amount is greater then $15.00, then the company issues a refund, once they have issued all the refunds for say this week, then want the running total of the refund due (the column to the left of AJ in this example) reset to zero or null I KNOW, I KNOW this should be in Access.... Need to get a good workaround until I convince them of that!! ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=unsubscribe Or, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu.
