Inserting Multiple Rows In Very Large Worksheet

Hoping someone might have some thoughts on optimizing the code below. I am inserting
5 rows each time a new employee is found. Then adding the text for the pay category.

I have done some research and was wondering if "Resize" may be a viable option.

Thanks,

Bob


Code:
X = 2

Do Until Cells(X, 1) = ""




Dim vLoop As Long


    If Cells(X, 10) <> Cells((X + 1), 10) Then
        vLoop = 1
        
        Do While vLoop < 7
        
            Select Case vLoop
            
                Case 1
                    Cells(X, 18) = "BASE SALARY"
                Case 2
                    Cells(X, 18) = "NON-PROFIT BASED BONUS"
                Case 3
                    Cells(X, 18) = "OTHER"
                Case 4
                    Cells(X, 18) = "OVERTIME"
                Case 5
                    Cells(X, 18) = "PROFIT BASED BONUS"
                Case 6
                    Cells(X, 18) = "TOTAL"
                    Exit Do
                    
            End Select
                
            Range(Cells(X, 1), Cells(X, 17)).Select
            Selection.Copy
            Rows(X + 1).Select
            Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown
            Application.CutCopyMode = False


            vLoop = vLoop + 1
            X = X + 1
            
        Loop
        
        X = X + 1
        
    End If


Loop

How many records are in your original database?

Try this

Code:
Sub Inserting_Multiple_Rows_1()
  Dim i As Long, ant As Variant, arr As Variant
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
  arr = Array("BASE SALARY", "NON-PROFIT BASED BONUS", "OTHER", _
              "OVERTIME", "PROFIT BASED BONUS", "TOTAL")
  For i = Range("J" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row To 2 Step -1
    If ant <> Range("J" & i).Value Then
      Range("A" & i & ":R" & i).Copy
      Range("A" & i + 1 & ":R" & i + UBound(arr)).Insert Shift:=xlDown
      Range("R" & i & ":R" & i + UBound(arr)).Value = Application.Transpose(arr)
    End If
    ant = Range("J" & i).Value
  Next
  Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
  Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub

Thanks so much DanteAmor. There are 5,397 records to process.
I tried the code and it did not insert any rows.
Thanks again for your help.

According to your macro, employees are in column J and start in row 2.
Isn't that how your data is?
Can you put a sample of how your data is?
If the workbook contains confidential information, you could replace it with generic data.

Did you modify something in the macro? :confused:

DanteAmor - I have a test file but not sure how to post it here. you are correct in that
the employee numbers start in Column "J" and on row 2.

Do you have formulas in column J or values?
Check that you don't have cells with blaks after the last employee in column J.

Perform a test with this data.

Thanks again. You have no idea how much I appreciate this.

So, does my code work for you?
Did you test my code with your real data?
Improved runtime?

Code is still not working perfectly. Below is what I expect to see after running the code
and you can see from my results above this is not happening.

If you run the macro more than once the table grows and grows.

Only run the test once and review the results.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If it is not what you need then upload a file to the cloud with 2 sheets on sheet1 you put your original table and on sheet2 you put the expected result.

You could upload a copy of your file to a free site such www.dropbox.com. Once you do that, mark it for 'Sharing' and you will be given a link to the file that you can post here. If the workbook contains confidential information, you could replace it with generic data.
