Commenting out Multiple Lines in a Macro

The character used for adding comments on each line in a macro is ' . How can I comment out multiple lines at once, where I don't have to add the ' on each line? Please advise. In most programming languages, there is provision for this such as: /* or <!-- etc.

Re: Loop and Save to Same File

Marcia, I've tried your code but extracted data is saving in column 2 of the output file. That is fine but not what I'm after. If I do this, I would have to make a copy of my input file leaving column 2 empty for the extract data. Isn't there a way to just insert extracted data into the input source...

Should each number come from an uploaded CSV file (where there is a column of 4000 numbers) or is there code to handle this re...
