    inserting two blank lines when based on data in a column

    I need a MACRO that will insert two blank lines when the data in a column changes from one person to another. For instance, if the raw data looks like this:

    Jimmy Hoffa
    Jimmy Hoffa
    Jimmy Hoffa
    Judge Crater
    Judge Crater
    Judge Crater
    Judge Crater
    Amelia Earhart
    Amelia Earhart
    Amelia Earhart

    and I want it to look like this:

    Jimmy Hoffa
    Jimmy Hoffa
    Jimmy Hoffa


    Judge Crater
    Judge Crater
    Judge Crater
    Judge Crater


    Amelia Earhart
    Amelia Earhart
    Amelia Earhart

    Re: inserting two blank lines when based on data in a column

    I appreciate your help. I noticed when I expanded my testing that your solution only covers the one column. Is there a way to insert blank rows (as opposed to cells) in the same manner?
