Code from mrExcel's book "VBA and Macros for Excel 2007" is not working

[dl7631]

Hello everyone!
I am new to VBA. I am reading Mr Excel's book "VBA and Macros for Microsoft Office Excel 2007".
I am trying to re-create from scratch and run the code from Chapter 2, pp. 59-60 of the book (see below). I do it using F8. However, as soon as I get to the line that defines a new variable (FinalRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row), I get an error:
"Compile error: Variable not defined"

My code is correct (in fact, I copied it from the file I downloaded from the link that was provided in the book)

Advice?
Thank you!
Dimitri

You're absolutely right, Dimitri. Best wishes with learning VBA: it takes a while for familiarity with the objects and can be frustrating at the beginning. It gets much easier. Regards, Fazza
