AskWoody LoungerThis article in PC magazine, about “CloudMark” (free) sounds pretty good.
I have not tried it.

You could create two separate lists and copy/paste both of them on a new sheet.There is at least one commercial alternative.

AskWoody LoungerI deleted the blank rows on your attached file and ended up with 40 rows with data.
I don’t know how that compares to what you expected.On your original data, I would just sort the data – blank rows sort to the bottom – no copying, no new worksheet needed.

AskWoody LoungerRowStart and FinalRow are evaluated once by Excel at the start of the loop.
The RowStart and FinalRow values are not reevaluated during the loop.
You will get uncertain results by trying the change those values during the loop. Don’t do it.One thing you could do is use a counter inside the loop and exit the loop using “Exit For” when the counter reaches a specified value: Counter = Counter + 1
As it is not clear to me exactly what the criteria is for quiting the loop, I can’t advise further.

AskWoody LoungerI just had a similar experience with xl2007 and windowsXP.
What fixed the problem was deleting the .xlb file that contains the menubar/toolbars (or ribbon) configuration.
The file is automatically rebuilt when Excel starts, if the file is missing.
There is a separate file for each version of Excel.
The file can be found on my machine at:
C:Documents and Settingssome nameApplication DataMicrosoftExcel
The actual file name should be “Excel10.xlb.”
