Dim x As Integer
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
' Set numrows = number of rows of data.
NumRows = Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlDown)).Rows.Count
' Select cell a1.
Range("A1").Select
' Establish "For" loop to loop "numrows" number of times.
For x = 1 To NumRows

(Prompt:="first cell select..", Title:="Kutools for Excel", Type:=8)
xrg.Cells(1, 1).Select
' Set Do loop to stop when two consecutive empty cells are reached.
