Excel version 2013 on windows.

I have a spread sheet that I need to hide entire rows based on another cells contents.
I need two rules, based on different conditions.

Rule 1

When cell C14 contains "Select"

I need Rows 20:34 to be hidden.

When Cell C14 contains Anything other than "select"

I need Rows 20:34 to be unhidden.


Rule 2

Between the rows 40:54 I only want the next row below the current populated row to be unhidden at a time.

For example when cell C40 is populated
only rows 40:41 should be shown. Then rows 55 and below, 39 and above should be unhidden as normal, but rows 20:34, should still adhere to the 1st rule mentioned above.

When cell C41 is populated
rows 40:42 should be shown. Then rows 55 and below 39 and above should be unhidden as normal, but rows 20:34, should still adhere to the 1st rule mentioned above.

When cell C42 is populated
rows 40:43 should be shown. Then rows 55 and below 39 and above should be unhidden as normal, but rows 20:34, should still adhere to the 1st rule mentioned above.


Thank you in advance.
Please let me know if more information is required.
 
Thank you Steve059L

However the code throws up error, where I have highlighted below.
I think it is because the code does not like altering the cells that are hidden!
Is there another way to combine the two codes.

I have highlighted in bold where the debugger shows the error.

If Target.Column = 3 And Target.Row = 16 And Target.Value = "Select" Then
Range("F20:F34").Value = ""
Rows("18:34").EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
If Target.Column = 3 And Target.Row = 16 And Target.Value <> "Select" Then
Rows("18:34").EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If

Thank again in advance.

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
don't know why, but excel seems happy with this mod

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Row = 14 And Target.Column = 3 Then
If Target.Value = "Select" Then
Range("F20:F34").ClearContents

Rows("18:34").EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
If Target.Value <> "Select" Then
Rows("18:34").EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If
End If
End Sub
