 Dim rowType As String 
 Dim msg As String 
 
 isValid = True 
 msg = ""

 Application.SelectBeginning 
 
 ' When a cell in an empty row is selected, accessing the ActiveCell.Resource 
 ' property results in error 1004. 
 On Error Resume Next 
 
 ' Loop until a cell in an empty row is selected. 
 While isValid 
 Set res = ActiveCell.Resource 
 
 If Err.Number > 0 Then 
 isValid = False 
 Debug.Print Err.Number 
 Err.Number = 0 
 Else 
 If res.GroupBySummary Then 
 rowType = "' is a group-by summary row." 
 Else 
 rowType = "' is a resource row." 
 End If 
 
 msg = msg & "Resource name: '" & res.Name & rowType & vbCrLf 
 SelectCellDown 
 End If 
 Wend 
 
 MsgBox msg, vbInformation, "GroupBy Summary for Resources"
