I have the below code that uses a command button. It will insert a row when the value changes in column K starting at row 11 (colors). It works great, but I wonder if there is a way to add in the formulas and formatting to the inserted rows?

Code:
Dim LR As Long, i As Long
LR = Range("K" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = LR To 12 Step -1
    If Range("K" & i).Value <> Range("K" & i - 1).Value Then Rows(i).Insert
Next i
End Sub

Any help would be greatly appreciate. I truly thank you!

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
How about
Code:
Dim LR As Long, i As Long
LR = Range("K" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = LR To 12 Step -1
    If Range("K" & i).Value <> Range("K" & i - 1).Value Then
      Rows(i).Insert
      Rows(i - 1).Resize(2).Filldown
   End If
Next i

Do you mean that it's not inserting the new rows?

It is inserting the new rows, but it's also filling them with the contents of the row above.
If that is not what you are after can you please explain what you want.

I do apologize, I don't think I am explaining myself correctly - My original code does insert new rows, but when I added the part you created it didn't add in rows and fill w/ the formatting/formulas only from the other cells (it did copy exactly what was in the above row). I don't want to copy - just want to keep the formatting/formulas. The code I'm using now to insert rows after word change (loops from bottom to top) works, but isn't keeping the borders and formulas in the new rows.

      Rows(i - 1).Resize(2).Filldown
      Rows(i).SpecialCells(xlConstants).ClearContents
   End If
Next i
End Sub

That is wonderful!!! Thank you so much! I am using this code on 9 different sheets. I have a userform to choose items, command button to move items to these 9 sheets and paste items where they go on each sheet and calculate what is needed for each items sizes (all different) - last step is to sort by certain criteria and split by color and add in new line. This is perfect!!!!!! Again, thank you so much! The updated coded works wonderfully!
