Paul,

Thanks for the response.  In the spreadsheet, there is a number holder for a
name to be added later.  It's because we have so many linked files and we
add rows for future additions to the model.

So, there are probably 20 instances where I have rows that go from 3 to 18
and instead of going one by one to hide each row I created the below code
and basically I want to shorten it to where it sees a number 3 to 18 in
column A and hide that row.

I'd also like an input box that pops up and I enter a start number and end
number.

Or if I answer "10", it will hide rows 3-13 ??  10 will hide any row in
column A that has the number 10.
