Automatically Remove Unwanted Rows
Dec 13, 2007
Im not strong in excel, that why Im here. So:
I work every day with big amount of item numbers and lists in excel and I need some macro or code to automatically remove rows, containing unwanted text.
Example:
MEMORY DIMM 512MB PC3200 DDR
MEMORY DIMM 512MB PC6400 DDRII
MEMORY DRIVE FLASH USB2 2GB
MEMORY MINI SD 2GB W/ADAPTER
MEMORY SECURE DIGITAL 2GB
MEMORY DIMM 1GB PC6400 DDRII
MEMORY DRIVE FLASH USB2 1GB
MEMORY DRIVE FLASH USB2 1GB
So I paste the text from my database, and want to automatically delete rows containing DIMM string. How can I do it?
p.s. is there also a way to leave only the rows I want?

i have quite a lot of excel 2003 spreadsheets which once edited and saved by excel2007. now, i'm using back excel 2003. (because my efficiency dropped by half by searching the command i wanted in excel2007.) when i open them with excel2003 again, there are a lot of styles. i want to remove them. but it is a tedious job to remove them one by one for these spreadsheets.

In Column A, I have several rows of data. Some cells contain numbers and some contain text and some are blank. In Column C, I only want the numbers in Column A. I do not want the text and I cannot have any gaps in the column.
So for example:
Column A: row 1: 456 row 2: 789 row 3: text row 4: text row 5: 398 row 6: text row 7: blank row 8: 124
in Column C I need:
row 1: 456 row 2: 789 row 3: 398 row 4: 124

Range("A2").Select
Range(Selection, ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell)).Select
Selection.EntireRow.Delete
ActiveSheet.ShowAllData

I am aware this is probably very simple, but I haven't been able to find a usable macro yet. I would like the data in the workbook that is not "Tuesday" (column L) and is not "3" or "4" (column I) to be deleted. All rows that have "Tuesday" and either "3" or "4" should not be deleted. Each row that is not deleted must have Tuesday in column L. All other cells are blank intentionally. The workbook will remain the same titled WKBK1 (no need to put the output data in a separate workbook nor separate spreadsheet).
Do you know what the macro would be so I don't have to copy and paste a formula over a large number of cells?

Need to find out how I can restrict a worksheet to show only the columns and rows that I want. For example, I want to show columns A to H, and rows 1 to 25, and nothing else - I don't want there to be a column G, or a row 26, just blank grey space. I know it's possible, because I've seen it done : D . But the closest I can get to is: View > Page Break Preview, which isn't quite what I'm after.

My spreadsheet has 600rows and the vertical scroll bar ends at row 459424. I have attempted to delete all of the extra rows by holding SHIFT and CTRL, striking the down arrow then right-clicking on the left margin of highlighted row numbers and choosing delete.
But the unwanted rows are still there and my vertical scroll bar is not correlated to the 600 rows.

After doing some searching I found a macro here which imports multiple text files into one workbook, keeping each text file as a seperate worksheet, each worksheet named the same as the original file name (minus the .txt extension).
However, it adds a blank line between each line of text. So I get this:

This doesn't happen when I use the import wizard, or when I just open the file from the File -> Open menu.
My text files are always the same format (number of lines, etc.), so it's easy to delimit and insert forumlae as needed, but those extra lines are breaking a macro I've previously written to parse the data.

This code below is pasted from Automatically Add Date, Time or Date & Time and uses the Worksheet Change Event
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A2:A100")) Is Nothing Then
With Target(1, 2)
.Value = Date
.EntireColumn.AutoFit
End With
End If
End Sub
It automatically enters today's date into the corresponding B cell. How do I code it so that the date is automatically removed when & if I delete the corresponding A cell?

I'm needing to import a .csv into another software and it needs the fields formatted a specific way.
The spreadsheet I've been given has columns for different departments and an X to denote if they fall under it. As an example.
Name
Sales
OHS
HR
Joe Bloggs
X
X
Bob Smith
X
John Doe
X
X
For the import into this software it needs the fields like this, the name in the cell has to be exactly the same as the column header.
Joe Bloggs
Sales
HR
Bob Smith
OHS
John Doe
OHS
HR
Is there an easy formula to scan the row, if an X is found substitute the X for the column header text and if no X in a cell delete it and shift all cells to the left within the row ?
The substitution is quite easy and I've played around with lookup or if statements to quite easily do that but the bit I'm having trouble sorting is removing any unnecessary cells in that row so only cells with data are listed in the row.

i am using a set of VB codes that was kindly provided by "dr". Please refer to the link below.
Highlight-Select Start Date To End Date
However, I am facing problems on how to delete or unfill the cells that are "coloured and filled with booking reference name" (i.e. being booked by the user).
In another words, currently, once a booking is made, the blank slots would be coloured to red and would reflect the customer name in those slots (with the use of dr's VB codes).
Comes the next day, if that booking needs to be cancelled, would the user be able to "delete" that booking that was made (i.e. uncolour that slot plus remove the customer name) without having to automatically go unfill the cells and delete the text in the cells?

from a challenged Excel user who has a cell that needs to countdown the days of the month but need the ability to automatically remove Sundays. In other words the cell needs to refresh daily to show the number of days that have passed thus far and automatically know to not include Sundays. This would just be a numerical value.

The number of rows you are pasting and then you can select that same number of existing rows and use "insert". This is what I'm trying to achieve:
(before paste)
A
B
C
(after pasting unknown number of rows)
1
2
...
n
A
B
C
Is there really no built-in way to do this?

I am using the following code to remove an entire row if a specific cell in that row contains "remove":
iLastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
For i = iLastRow To 1 Step -1
If Left(Cells(i, "D").Value, 4) = "remo" Then
Rows(i).Delete
End If
Next i
However, from what I can see, it starts from the bottom and look upward, removing each line as it finds it. The problem is, there could be upward of 500 lines that need to be deleted. This coding looks and removes lines one at a time and can take a while. Is there any way I can get this done faster?
During the previous steps of my macro, I sort the column (Column D) that has the "remove" in it, so all of the "remove"s are adjacent to each other in Column D of my file.
