      This article in PC magazine, about “CloudMark” (free) sounds pretty good.
      I have not tried it.

      Chip Pearson has code to create a folder/file listing here…
      http://www.cpearson.com/excel/FolderTree.aspx
      You could create two separate lists and copy/paste both of them on a new sheet.

      There is at least one commercial alternative.

      Could be that the sheet name(s) doesn’t exist or the Pub_ workbook is not open.
      Also, I recommend using “Color” not “ColorIndex” to define colors in xl2007 and later: .Tab.Color

      If ActiveCell.Value = “Blank” Then
      ActiveCell.EntireRow.Delete

      I deleted the blank rows on your attached file and ended up with 40 rows with data.
      I don’t know how that compares to what you expected.

      On your original data, I would just sort the data – blank rows sort to the bottom – no copying, no new worksheet needed.

      March 10, 2011 at 10:26 pm in reply to: Changing the ‘end’ value of a for loop #1271243

      RowStart and FinalRow are evaluated once by Excel at the start of the loop.
      The RowStart and FinalRow values are not reevaluated during the loop.
      You will get uncertain results by trying the change those values during the loop. Don’t do it.

      One thing you could do is use a counter inside the loop and exit the loop using “Exit For” when the counter reaches a specified value: Counter = Counter + 1
      As it is not clear to me exactly what the criteria is for quiting the loop, I can’t advise further.

      March 4, 2011 at 8:32 pm in reply to: Excel (Office XP, Win7) crashing on startup #1270369

      I just had a similar experience with xl2007 and windowsXP.
      What fixed the problem was deleting the .xlb file that contains the menubar/toolbars (or ribbon) configuration.
      The file is automatically rebuilt when Excel starts, if the file is missing.
      There is a separate file for each version of Excel.
      The file can be found on my machine at:
      C:Documents and Settingssome nameApplication DataMicrosoftExcel
      The actual file name should be “Excel10.xlb.”
