Delete Rows Based On Flag In Column
Mar 14, 2008
I want to get a Macro to delete all rows wherever "DELETE" appears in a certain column - I tried using the Delete Entire Row Based on Criteria Macro on Ozgrid but I'm looking for a fully automated solution, rather than the question boxes coming up and asking which cell/criteria to use. The spreadsheets I'm using this on are big, so because this Macro uses filters, it takes a long time and I also need to run this macro on multiple sheets so its not practical to use this.
DELETE is just the word I'm using as the TRUE statement generated from an IF formula that I'm using to compare cells in adjacent rows ie =IF(AND(E2=E3,G2=G3,Q2=Q3),"DELETE",FALSE) - Its completely fine for me to copy/paste values of this formula first and then sort the column so that all cells containing DELETE will appear at the top of the column if that helps. Any ideas on how I could get a Macro to delete those rows at this stage?

I have a report in which I need to delete the entire row for each cell in Column A that has the name "Defacto" in a certain location in that cell. I am trying to use VBA code in conjuction with the "MID" function [i.e., Mid(Cell.Value, 8, 7) = "Defacto"]. This is the code I came up with (but, obviously, it doesn't work):
Sub DeleteRowOnCondition()
Range("A2").Select
Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.End(xlDown)).Select
For Each Cell In Selection
If Mid(Cell.Value, 8 , 7) = "Defacto" Then Rows.Delete
Next Cell
End Sub
As well, there is another worksheet in the same report in which I need to delete all the rows that do NOT meet that condition (while retaining the ones that do).

I would like to Use my Excel VBA program to search each row in a csv document for a name (located in a cell ) if the name exists then I would like to delete the entire row.
Whenever I try to do the above in excel, even when I save in csv format the file formating or something gets changed and the file which has to be procesed through another program then process incorectly.
Is there a way to do what I need while retaining the formating which must obviously be changed when the file is opened in excel?

The attached picture shows part of an excel file. It contains about 50.000 rows which I want to run a pivot on. The problem is though that the file contains some rows which stop my pivot from running correctly. These data which I mention are in rows 4, 7, 22-25. Seeing as deleting them manually would take me hours and hours I was wondering if there would be a macro which I can run which delete rows automatically. I think it should filter on the following: whenever there is not a numeric value in column A, the entire row should be deleted.

modifying the following from deleting rows older than 365 days to delete rows older than 12 months. So I can keep a rolling year by month.
Sub DeleteOldSR()
Dim x As Long
Dim iCol As Integer
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
iCol = 7 'Filter on column G (Create Date)
For x = Cells(Cells.Rows.Count, iCol).End(xlUp).Row To 2 Step -1
s = Cells(x, 3).Value
If s Like "Closed" Or s Like "Closed w/o Customer Confirm" Then
If Cells(x, iCol).Value < (Date - 365) Then
Cells(x, iCol).EntireRow.Delete
End If
End If
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
I tried modifying the IF statement using month with the following but it seems to delete all months < and is not year dependant.
If Month(Cells(x, iCol).Value) < Month(Date) - 12 Then

creating a macro for an excel spreadsheet? The problem I am faced with is I need to reduce a xls file from a ticketing system at work that contains roughly 50,000 rows.
What I need to have done is reduce a Site Code column (column B) so that for each ticket entry there is only one occurrence of each user that worked on that ticket.What the macro should do is to look through column B and remove any duplicate rows for the same ticket number located in column A. once the macro gets to the next ticket number in column A I need it to start over on the duplicate check for column B.
I have a attached a xls file to this post to try and show what it is i am working on.

I am building a template ("Table") that will import data from 4 other spreadsheets and then format the data once its all in the template. I need to delete all rows where a name didn't import. The names are landing in column B (starting with B22), so I set up my code using an active cell loop macro to examine each cell to see if it was empty, and then to delete the row if it were. I've tried 4-5 iterations of code but nothing is working correctly.
Apparently when the fields are copied over from the other spreadsheets, some empty cells actually have something in them such that they are not completely blank. What syntax I can use so that I capture every instance of a blank/empty cell and delete that corresponding row? Some of the code I've tried is below.

I've attached a dummy worksheet that shows constant values of 1.00 in columns D and E. In the actual workbook, user action will sometimes cause these values to change to something other that 1.00. The user may wish to delete the action that caused the change.
I need a macro that will search from the last cell in column D upward to the first instance of a cell that is not equal to 1.00 and select that cell and those immediately above with the same value as the first found cell.
For example, in the attached worksheet the search would start in the last cell of Columd D and search upward. It would find cell D23 and upward to D19. These entire rows would be deleted.

I have a excel file which contains dublicate rows. The duplicate rows can be identified based on few cell/column values. I need a macro to delete the duplicate rows when the below condition is satisfied: let us consider row 5 and row 6:
If column 7,12,13,16,17,18,19,23,24,27,28,29,30 in row 5 = row 6 then row 6 has to be deleted. This condition has to be followed for all other rows in the excel used range. Have attached the sample workbook.

I'm trying to use VBA code to delete certain rows based on a couple of criteria as follows:
1) If column header is "TERMINAL NAME" and the cell value in that column is "BONDDESK", I need the entire row deleted.
2) Similiarly, if the column header is "PRODUCT TYPE" and the cell value in that column is "CORP", that entire row needs deleted as well.
The information is coming from another source, so the columns may change from day to day, i.e, "TERMINAL NAME" may be in Column L one day but in Column O another day.....

I'm trying to write a VBA script which will delete all rows in my Excel spreadsheet where Column I (which contains a status code) does not contain the word "Completed".
At the moment, I'm doing this the other way round: my script is able to search for entries in Column I which contain the status codes "Pending", "Awaiting Authorisation", "In Progress" etc and delete them. The idea is that when all those rows are deleted, I'll only be left with rows which have a status of "Completed". This works fine at the moment. However, the concern is that if a brand new status code is added to the data file, my script would be unable to pick it up and delete it. This is a small sample of the code I'm currently using (which deletes all the rows with statuses other than Completed):

in column 2, something may have multiple numbers, but it must have something in column 1 that is equal to 0.
ex. everything above is ok except the 2-06 because it needs a cooresponding 0-06. I need some way to flag these so that i know when there is something in column 2 without a cooresponding 0 in column 1

I have a list of items in column A. And a "flag" in column B. I have attached a small sample. What I need to be able to do is "Hide" all the items in column A where there are no flags for that item in column B. This I can do. The problem is that if a flag shows for an item, I want to show ALL of the rows containing that item, even if there are no flags for some of them, and hide the rest.

I am processing an infinite set of data from a meteorological station here in Alaska which gives me half hourly data reading with a time stamp 00.00, 00.30, 01.00, 01.30, 02.00, 02.30 and so on.
I am using this formula to detect every time half hour reading is skipped (=IF(TEXT(MOD(B1936-B1934,1),"[M]")="30","","missing")) and it works pretty well.
Still I have to check and manually insert extra missing for every half hour missing but that's bearable.
This formula inserts a "missing" every time it finds a gap.
My question is: How can I insert a row above every cell with "missing"?
How do I do that? Here is also my excel sheet.

This sheet has A:K columns and 1:3212 rows. There are 'page headers' that are in the text file that I want to delete (the text file was exported from an AS400 program). The first row that starts the page header has SA341 in column 1. Each page header has 5 rows. I used this code from one of the other threads on deleting rows, but I obviously do not understand the code as it deleted all rows that contained SA341.
Sub DeleteRows()
Column_To_Check = 1
Start_Row = 1
End_Row = ActiveSheet. Cells(Rows.Count, Column_To_Check).End(xlUp).Row
MsgBox End_Row
Search_String = "SA341"
For Row_Counter = End_Row To Start_Row Step -1
If ActiveSheet.Cells(Row_Counter, Column_To_Check).Value < SA341 > Search_String Then
ActiveSheet.Rows(Row_Counter).Delete
End If
Next Row_Counter
End Sub

I am copying a price list from a worksheet. I currently have a script that deletes unwanted rows (products) but these products' header rows' are left. I also want to delete these text based headers. One solution might be a script that reads a columns cell value in the row(s) below and if values are missing the header row should be deleted.

I have a sheet with say 1000+ rows that is a QA report of possible mistakes found in a employee rostering tool.
The report finds all occurrences where the staff member only has one coffee break rather than the two they are entitled to. However, on days where they have training, or other half day commitments, on of the coffee breaks is not entered into out tool. This means we are getting a whole lot of entries that we do not require(i.e. one coffee break error).
The tool uses icons but the cells do have a single unique character under each icon type. For example, the coffee break cells have a "T" and training cells have a "&" underneath the icon (without quotes). The staff members day is separated into 15 minute blocks and each block occupies a cell in a column. This means each staff members day spans many columns in a row (i.e. C=8am, D=8:15am, E=8:30am etc...).
What I have been trying to accomplish is to create a macro in VB code that will locate any row with both a "T and a "&" and delete it. This will eliminate occurrences that we are aware of and leave only genuine errors. There are other combination's that I would like to include also such as:
"T" "["
"T" "#"
"T" "@"
"T" "]"
The first row is headers and the first two columns contain team names and staff names which I am trying to exclude (because names contains "T"'s ).
I have spent many hours now looking for example code on Google, this forum and other forums, however most of the examples I have found are looking for two criteria within a column or specific criteria that is not suitable to my application (i.e. values <> certain numbers etc...).

I had a raw data sheet in which i need to prepare a statement just like the attached worksheet.
My requirement is to delete all those rows in the department column except the department which starts with "C" Just like "CNN" & "CNN-IN".
Rows with data containing the words starting with "CNN" should not be deleted .The rows can contain words with "CNN" or "CNN*"(here * denotes anything after the word CNN)
I had just formatted the whole worksheet for easy reference.Actually the raw data is extracted from other program which is very clumsy & irregular.
The department column might be in any column.

Can a macro be used to:
1. Delete rows that contain certain text in a worksheet ?
2. Highlight a cell a colur based on a response ?
I have attached an example of what i mean .....
In the Audit Protocol worksheet is the main information - which contains questions and answers .... If a yes, n/a or no is selected then a response is automatically generated in the observations column (thanks to SHG for helping me with the formula for this) ..... How do I then get the cell to change to red if a NO response only is selected ?
Then the information from the Audit Protocol worksheet (the observation column and number column) are copied across to the worksheet named Action List (this is done just by the copy function) .... How do I go about deleting rows that contain "no action required" - as these are not needed for the report to be generated ?

I need a macro that loops through all rows (With the exception of the first row) and looks for two conditions. If those two conditions are met, I'd like for it to delete the row.
The first condition is if Column O does not contain a certain phrase "VTX" VTX isn't the complete value of the column, it might just be contained within a few other notes in that column.
The second condition is if Col S equals "COMPLETE/FOLLOW-UP IMAGING".
So if these two conditions are met, Col O does not contain the word "VTX" and Col S equals "COMPLETE/FOLLOW-UP IMAGING", then that row should be deleted.

I am looking to make a cell with the Value =Today()-1. I then want the code to pick up the cell value and then delete any row that does not have that value.
So for Example it would only keep =Today()-1 Dates in the sheet and delete the rest.
Code:
Dim LR As Long, i As LongWith Sheets("Sheet1")
LR = .Range("Q" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = LR To 2 Step -1
If .Range("Q" & i).Value = "Y" Then .Rows(i).Delete
Next i

I am trying to clear row with the following rules:
the last cell must not contain 0, if 0 delete entire row.
the first cell the the A row should be only three character long, if more delete entire row.
Now I managed to delete the 0 in the last cell and but cannot get the VBA to count the characters in the first row and if more than three, delete the entire row . I know to count the characters in a cell is done by Len(Rng.Value) , but getting the VBA right is alluding me .
the script is here,
Sub Del_rows_with_zero_in_column_of_activecell()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Const StartRow As Long = 1 'Row to Start looking at
Dim StopRow As Long
Dim Col As Long

I have a 20,000 row text file that I import. It has blank rows, page headers and footers, and many rows at the bottom that I do not want. I have been cleaning up the data manually but this takes a great deal of time and I have a need to perform this clean up on a more frequent basis.
I have tried recording a macro to do some of the deleting but I am running into an issue that I do not know how to over come. When I filtered the data based on "Blanks" on a specific column and then try to delete them in mass, Excel errors out stating that my request was too complex.
