Finding first blank row, then writing to it

Question

I need to find the first blank row in a workbook and write information to (row, 1) and (row, 2). I think I\'m currently pretty stuck...

Function WriteToMaste         


        

Answer 1

I would have done it like this. Short and sweet :)

Sub test()
Dim rngToSearch As Range
Dim FirstBlankCell As Range
Dim firstEmptyRow As Long

Set rngToSearch = Sheet1.Range("A:A")
    'Check first cell isn't empty
    If IsEmpty(rngToSearch.Cells(1, 1)) Then
        firstEmptyRow = rngToSearch.Cells(1, 1).Row
    Else
        Set FirstBlankCell = rngToSearch.FindNext(After:=rngToSearch.Cells(1, 1))
        If Not FirstBlankCell Is Nothing Then
            firstEmptyRow = FirstBlankCell.Row
        Else
            'no empty cell in range searched
        End If
    End If
End Sub

Updated to check if first row is empty.

Edit: Update to include check if entire row is empty

Option Explicit

Sub test()
Dim rngToSearch As Range
Dim firstblankrownumber As Long

    Set rngToSearch = Sheet1.Range("A1:C200")
    firstblankrownumber = FirstBlankRow(rngToSearch)
    Debug.Print firstblankrownumber

End Sub

Function FirstBlankRow(ByVal rngToSearch As Range, Optional activeCell As Range) As Long
Dim FirstBlankCell As Range

    If activeCell Is Nothing Then Set activeCell = rngToSearch.Cells(1, 1)
    'Check first cell isn't empty
    If WorksheetFunction.CountA(rngToSearch.Cells(1, 1).EntireRow) = 0 Then
        FirstBlankRow = rngToSearch.Cells(1, 1).Row
    Else

        Set FirstBlankCell = rngToSearch.FindNext(After:=activeCell)
        If Not FirstBlankCell Is Nothing Then

            If WorksheetFunction.CountA(FirstBlankCell.EntireRow) = 0 Then
                FirstBlankRow = FirstBlankCell.Row
            Else
                Set activeCell = FirstBlankCell
                FirstBlankRow = FirstBlankRow(rngToSearch, activeCell)

            End If
        Else
            'no empty cell in range searched
        End If
    End If
End Function

Answer 2

ActiveSheet.Range("A10000").End(xlup).offset(1,0).Select
