Hey guys,

Is there a way to shorten the following code so that I do not have to write or Range ("A1") = every time I wanna add an or statement? Thanks for the help in advance.

ElseIf Range("A1") = "Location 1" Or Range("A1") = "Location 2" Or Range("A1") = "Location 4" Or Range("A1") = "Location 5" Or Range("A1") = "Location 6" Or Range("A1") = "Location 7" Then do blah blah
 

Excel Facts

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
Just going to put this out there.

Shorter does NOT mean Better.
Don't change code 'just to make it shorter'


Anyway..

You can use a Select Case structure..

Code:
Select Case Range("A1").Value
    Case "Location 1", "Location 2", "Location 4", "etc."
        blah blah
End Select
