Code:
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Sub DelRows()
Dim Variant As Range[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Set Variant = Range("B172:B201")[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]On Error GoTo GetOut
Variant.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).Select
On Error GoTo 0
If Selection.Count = <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Variant.Count</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Then</st1:PlaceName> 'All cells were blank
<st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Range</st1:PlaceType>("171:209").EntireRow.Delete
Else
Selection.EntireRow.Delete
End If
GetOut:
'No blank cells[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]End Sub[/SIZE][/FONT]

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p> </o:p>
The macro I am using is above. Presently it checks range B172: B201 for data. If it finds data it does nothing. However if it does not find data it deletes the rows in range 171:209. Instead of deleting the rows in range 171:209, I would like to add asterisks to the rows in range B171:B209 but I am not sure how to change the code so that it can do that, would you be able to help me?
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
Try

Code:
Sub AsterixRows()
Dim Var As Range
Set Var = Range("B172:B201")
On Error GoTo GetOut
Var.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).Select
On Error GoTo 0
If Selection.Count = Var.Count Then 'All cells were blank
Range("171:209").Value = "*"
Else
Selection.Value = "*"
End If
GetOut:
'No blank cells
End Sub
