Hello,

I am using the following code below to filter a column and color the rows of that contain cells with the correct values (this occurs 3x in my code). My problem is the if e is nothing then the column still colors. I only want the rows to be colored if e is not nothing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated-there is probably something simple that I can't think of. Thanks!

Code:
With Sheets("Sheet1")
   lngLastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
   s = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match("Esc", Range("1:1"), 0)
   e = Range("E2:E" & lngLastRow).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)      
 
Columns("E").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="MAKE"
 
[COLOR=red]If Not e Is Nothing Then
Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(lngLastRow, s)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Activate
With Selection.Interior
.ThemeColor = xlThemeColorAccent5
.TintAndShade = 0.599993896298105
End With
[/COLOR]End If

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
I only posted a portion of my code--I have an end with at the end of the sub after the code cycles through the other 2 filters.

If e is nothing, I want nothing to happen, but it still colors the column.

The following line states the opposite.

Code:
If Not e Is Nothing Then

Try getting rid of the "Not"

Isn't the "IS NOTHING" designed to only speak to OBJECT VARIABLES?
AND.. OBJECT VARIABLES are ONLY set by using the Key Word "SET"
So... Wouldn't you need to say "Set e = ???"

Currently e is a normal variable, not as Object Variable.
