Help with small fix needed

[Guest]

Hello,

This is Catherine again.

(e-mail address removed)

I need help with a simple loop (please see code between ****** at bottom)

I am using VB to read an Excel spreadsheet, format the sheet based on the
input, and then save it. I have most of the code, but am stuck with a loop.

Basically, there are Test Cases written in an Excel spreadsheet. There are
one or more Test Cases in each Workbook. Each Test Case is separated by TWO
blank lines. The logic is, when the VB script sees two empty lines, it looks
to see if the third line is blank. If it is blank, that means that there are
no more Test Cases left in that Workbook. If the third line is populated,
that means there is another Test Case left. (this is the loop that I need
help with)...

There may or may not be more "sheets" in the spreadsheet (meaning the tab
separted sheets at the bottom of Excel). If a sheet exists, there may be one
or more Test Case in it. This part seems to be taken care of already.

The same logic applies to the Test Cases in the subsequent sheet as before,
meaning that if there are multiple Test Cases, they are separated by 2 blank
lines.

If someone can help me with writing an "IF Then" statement or a "Loop" in
the code provided, it would REALLY help me out. Basically, the statement
should be "If there are 3 blanks lines, then exit if. If the third line is
NOT blank, then continue to process".

PLEASE SEE THE AREA OF CODE WITHIN STARS (********)

Here is the code:



Option Explicit
Dim folderName As String, fileName As String, filePath As String

Worksheet

masterWorkbookPath = "C:\masterWorkbook.xls"
Set masterWorkbook = Application.Workbooks.Open(masterWorkbookPath)
Set MasterWS = masterWorkbook.Worksheets("import")
fileName = Dir(folderName & "*.xls")
Do While fileName <> ""
currentWriteRow = 2
filePath = folderName & "\" & fileName
'MsgBox fileName

Maybe

If Application.COUNTA(Rows(currentRow).Resize(3)) = 0 Then Exit Do

Sorry Bob,

I should have been more clear. When I run the vbs, I get this error:

This

If Application.CountA(Rows(currentRow).Resize(3)) = 0
Then Exit Do

should all be one line.
