I some VB code in an excel sheet. This code takes data from the excel sheet and drops it into an Access Database table.
All works perfectly and If the code finds there is no data it says "please fill in the sheet". The problem is the error message displays for *every* blank row of data in the range!
What I would like is only 1 error message if the first row of data is blank. Not an error for every single row. If the 1st row has data then it can just upload that single row.
Anyone know how to do this? I'm not very good at VB and have borrowed bits I found using google.
Thank you!
