Hello All,

Is there a way that anytime I put in a generic value in A2, it automatically adds a new blank row above that row so it becomes row 2?

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.

If it adds a row above it will become row 3, correct?

Put this in a worksheet module.
To install sheet code:
1. Right-click the worksheet tab you want to apply it to and choose 'View Code'. This will open the VBE window.
2. Copy the code below from your browser window and paste it into the white space in the VBE window.
3. Close the VBE window and Save the workbook. If you are using Excel 2007 or a later version do a SaveAs and save it as a macro-enabled workbook (.xlsm file extension).
4. Make sure you have enabled macros whenever you open the file or the code will not run.
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address <> "$A$2" Then Exit Sub
If Not IsEmpty(Target) Then
    Target.EntireRow.Insert
End If
End Sub
