I receive an error - Export-CSV-from-Excel-and-exclude-rows-based-on-cell-value

Thank you this works grate,

The file starts at A1 to N2400

Just a followup question, although column I is Rand values that are tested and the format is with two decimals 0.00 is there a way that I can change it so if it picks up text in thr I field it ignores the row similar to if it was 0 (so it doesn not get posted)?

I modified the code so it would ignore rows with text values in column I. The code will still stop the macro (go to statement EndMacro) if the column I cell contains an error value.

Note that the test for a numeric value on column I looks at the actual  value of the cell rather than the displayed text. So if you display only two decimal places and the RAND() function returns 0.00352 (displayed as "0.00"), the code recognizes that cell as a non-zero value and includes that line in the resulting CSV file. if you want to ignore that row, then use the commented out line in the IfElse block: dblTestValue = Val(rg.Cells(RowNdx, ColNdx).Text) instead of the one preceding it.
