this is my current code.

Code:
NR.Range("A1").Value = CS.Range("D5").Value   '(REQUIRED)
NR.Range("A2").Value = "<" & Format(CDate(Now()), "mm/dd/yyyy")
NR.Range("A3").Value = "<" & Format(CDate(Now()), "mm/dd/yyyy")


NR.Range("B1").Value = CS.Range("O5").Value   '(DUE)
NR.Range("B2").Value = "<" & Format(CDate(Now()), "mm/dd/yyyy")
NR.Range("B3").Value = [COLOR=#ff0000]BLANK[/COLOR]




'APPLY FILTER
CS.Range("A5:Z10000").AdvancedFilter _
    Action:=xlFilterCopy, _
    CriteriaRange:=NR.Range("A1:B2"), _
    CopyToRange:=NR.Range("A12"), _
    Unique:=False

The Due column normally contains a date, i succesfully filter this date when it is before today.
However I cannot find the correct syntax to filter this column when blank.


in english...


('Required' = Before today AND 'Due' = Before today) OR
('Required' = Before today AND 'Due' = BLANK)

any help is appreciated
 

Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Have you tried using equal sign "=" (without quotes in the cell but off course with quotes in vba)

Code:
NR.Range("B3").Value = "="

Thanks, But it didn't work.

Maybe because column O contains a formula... (sorry for not mentioning it before :) )


=IFERROR(IF(VLOOKUP(A6&"/"&B6,Comments!A:C,3,0)<10,"",VLOOKUP(A6&"/"&B6,Comments!A:C,3,0)),"")

so I am looking for the ""

In that case try ="" in the cell or in vba:
Code:
NR.Range("B3").Value =  "="""""
