Inserting Blank Rows in Excel VBA - excel

Question

Hey I have been writing some code to add a part ID to a spreadsheet off of a user form in Excel VBA. I have been reading through different documentation and can not figure out why no matter what type of method of inserting a row I try it inserts a row with a repeating value instead of a blank one. If anyone knows how to specify blank, other than writing the whole row to blank and then writing my numbers I want after, that would be appreciated.
I have tried both the following lines to add a row
Cells (x+1 ,column).EntireRow.Insert Shift:= xlDown
ws1.Rows(x+1).Insert Shift:=xlDown
This is the function it is used in:
Public Sub Add(IDRange As Range)
SearchCell = Cells(x, IDRange.Column)
Cells(x, IDRange.Column).Select
Do
If SearchCell = PartID Then
MsgBox " this Company Already uses this part"
Exit Sub
ElseIf x <> StopRow Then
x = x + 1
SearchCell = Cells(x, IDRange.Column)
End If
Loop While x <> StopRow And SearchCell <> PartID
Cells(x + 1, IDRange.Column).EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlDown
Cells(x, IDRange.Column).Value = PartID
MsgBox PartID & " has been added to Adress " & Cells(x, IDRange.Column).Address
Cells(x, IDRange.Column).Select
End Sub
Bellow is the function that calls the Add Function and where I belive it may be getting the company name from
Private Sub AddPart_Click()
AddPartCounter = 0
Company = UserForm1.CompanyBox.Value
PartID = UserForm1.PartBox.Value
If Company = "" Then
MsgBox " Please put in the company you would like the part to go under"
ElseIf PartID = "" Then
MsgBox " Please put in the Part you would like entered"
ElseIf UserForm1.Studs.Value = False And UserForm1.Spreaders.Value = False And UserForm1.Blocks.Value = False And UserForm1.Imma.Value = False Then
MsgBox "Please select the type of part you are trying to add"
Else
Dim CurrentCell
Set CurrentCell = Cells.Find(What:=Company, LookAt:=xlWhole)
If CurrentCell Is Nothing Then
MsgBox " Company Not Found "
Exit Sub
End If
x = CurrentCell.Row
Do
Set CurrentCell = CurrentCell.Offset(1, 0)
Loop While CurrentCell.Offset(1, 0) = "" And Not CurrentCell Is Nothing And CurrentCell.Offset(1, 0).Row <> thisvar.Row + 1
StopRow = CurrentCell.Row
'If they are trying to add a nut
If UserForm1.Imma.Value = True Then
Call Add(Nut_ID_Rng)
'IF they are trying to add a stud
ElseIf UserForm1.Studs.Value = True Then
Call Add(Stud_ID_Rng)
'If they are trying to add a block
ElseIf UserForm1.Blocks.Value = True Then
Call Add(Block_ID_Rng)
'If they are trying to add a spreader
ElseIf UserForm1.Spreaders.Value = True Then
Call Add(Spreader_ID_Rng)
End If
End If
AddPartCounter = 1
End Sub
I know that the repeating pattern is coming from the insert line through debugging but I can not figure out why I have tried changing variables to numbers and it still did the same thing. This what it looks like with the repeating values.

The problem is that you most likely have a value still stored in your clipboard when you execute the Macro. To fix that, simply add this line of dode before running the insert line:
Applcation.CutCopyMode = False
That will clear your clipboard and allow the inserted rows to be blank.
