    Resolved [RESOLVED] Excel VBA - Auto find and fill blank cells with random yes or no

    I need to fill blank cells in a specific column of a table whihc is connected to an online data source.
    the code i currently have is:
    Code:
    Dim i As Long
    With Sheets("Live Share Data")
    Range("a1").End(xlDown).Select
    Last_row = ActiveCell.Row
    
    For i = 2 To Last_row
    
    If Worksheets("Live Share Data").Cells(i, 11).Value = "" Then
        
        Worksheets("Live Share Data").Cells(i, 11).Value = Choose(RandBetween(1, 2), "Yes", "No")
    
        Next
    
    End If
    End Sub
    the code currently breaks when it hits "Choose" any ideas where i have gone wrong here?


    I have posted this on mrexcel forum but after little interest i have asked them to delete the post there. if i get any updates i will update in both locations.

    i tested this to work ok
    Code:
    Dim i As Long
    Randomize
    With Sheets(1)
        Last_row = .Range("a1").End(xlDown).row
        For i = 2 To Last_row
            If .Cells(i, 1).Value = "" Then
               .Cells(i, 1).Value = Choose(Int((2 * Rnd) + 1), "Yes", "No")
            End If
        Next
    End With
    randbetween must be some custom function that you don't have
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed
