I was trying to record a macro that selected the first blank cell in a column (A). The problem I am having is that all cells down to row 300 have formulas and the result of the formula may be "". So I want to select the first cell with a value of "" in column A. So I can't record the macro with macro recorder (I was going to record doing a shift-end down 1 to find the first empty cell).

How might I do that in VBA?

AND then

select all rows from that row down to row 300 and then delete those rows.
 

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
Code:
Sub Delete_From_First_Blank()
    Dim Firstblank As Long
    Firstblank = Range("A:A").Find("", , xlValues, , , xlNext).Row
    Rows(Firstblank & ":300").Delete
End Sub
