Insert a blank row before bracketed text

[bvlahides]

Hi - Am trying to auto insert blank rows (2 or 3) before a row containing bracketed text. All data is in a single column. I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include BEFORE/AFTER sheets if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Remember to desensitize the data.

Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

How about after each row that has the words "Talent Notes:" ?

A blank after talent notes is nice to have. I really need 2-3 blanks before "[TS*]. Thanks!

This should do what you want

Sub test()
    Dim i As Long, flg As Boolean
    On Error Resume Next
    Columns("b").SpecialCells(4).EntireRow.Delete
    On Error GoTo 0
    For i = Range("b" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row To 2 Step -1
        If Cells(i, 2).Value Like "[[]*[]]" Then
            If Not flg Then Rows(i + 1).Insert: flg = True
        Else
            If flg Then Rows(i + 1).Resize(2).Insert: flg = False
        End If
    Next
End Sub
