Identifying the last populated cell and stopping the loop when i
Hi
I have written the code below to do lots of look ups on some data. It all works fine but I can't seem to get the variable Data to work out the last populated cell. I know I need to use Range("A1").End(xlDown).Select but can't seem to get it right.
There are 2 sheets called Data and Look_Up and there is data in column A of each of them.
Please help
Thanks
Lyndsey
Sub LookUp()
Dim LookUp As String
Dim LookUpCount As Integer
Dim Cell As Range
Dim n As Integer
Dim Data As Range
LookUpCount = 2
LookUp = "A"
Do Until LookUp = ""
LookUp = Worksheets("Look_Up").Cells(LookUpCount, 1).Value
Set Data = Worksheets("Data").Range("A1:A7")
For Each Cell In Data
Cell.Activate
If Cell Like LookUp Then
If ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value = Empty Then
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value _
= Worksheets("Look_Up").Cells(LookUpCount, 1).Offset(0, 1).Value
End If
End If
Next Cell
LookUpCount = LookUpCount + 1
Loop
End Sub

Hello Lyndsey,
Hope you enjoyed your course with BEST Training.
Thank you for your question regarding last cell check.
You may want to use this code to find the last filled in cell,
range("a65000").end(xlup).row
or if you need the next available blank, +1 on the end of the line.
I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.
If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?
Have a great day.
Regards,
Mark
