    Repeat Macro until desired result

    Hello,

    I have a simple copy and paste macro that I want to repeat until a formula in cell AR3 says "YES". Does anyone know what I need to add to my macro to do this?

    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks Jason,

    That works, but now I'm wondering if there is a way to have it repeat until AR3 = "YES" or up to 10 times. Just in case a yes does not come quickly I don't want it to run forever. Any suggestions?

    Thanks JBeaucaire, but that gives me a "Loop without do error." Any suggestions how to avoid this error?

    JB, you can't have criteria in both the Do and the Loop. It's either

    Do [{While | Until} condition] / Loop

    or

    Do / Loop [{While | Until} condition]

    Thanks JBeaucaire, but everything worked but the stopping after 10 part.
