My code takes forever if I ask it to insert, say, 2500 rows. Is there a quicker way?
Code:
Sub Go()

Dim zinput As Long
Dim counter As Long

zinput = InputBox("How many rows to insert?")
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For counter = 1 To zinput + 1
Range("A2:X2").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Many thanks!

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
How about
VBA Code:
Sub Go()

Dim zinput As Variant

zinput = InputBox("How many rows to insert?")
If zinput = "" Then Exit Sub
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Range("A2:X2").Resize(zinput).Insert xlDown
End Sub
