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.
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 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 new to VBA and macros, using Excel 2010, and am trying to figure out how to delete all duplicate rows in a sheet where 2 or less of their values in column A is "1". I'd like have a script that is flexible enough to change to 3 or less if need be. I also have a header row that needs to be offset in the process.
A---B- 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 1--123 <-delete based on this the value of column A 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 1--321 1--321 1--321 1--321 1--321
or
A---B- 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 1--123 <-delete 1--123 <-delete based on this the value of column A 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 1--321 1--321 1--321 1--321 1--321
I am trying out with a code which checks for cell value as "Select" in column IU and then checks for corresponding column IV for value as "0". Please note that "Select" and "0" are populated by formulas. I need the select "Select" and "0" till the next "Select" occurs in column IU and delete the selected range and continue the process until last non empty cell based on column C.
I have written the below code but it doesn't work.
Code: Public Sub Test() Dim nRow As Long Dim nStart As Long

I could have uploaded the excel file that I am working on but did not find any upload attachment option.
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
Code: Sub DeleteAllBlankColumns() Dim LastRow As Long LastRow = Cells.Find(What:="*", SearchOrder:=xlRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, LookIn:=xlFormulas).Row On Error Resume Next

I want it to ALSO delete entire rows in the worksheet that do not have any values across the entire row. Currently the worksheet prints rows that have borders but no values. This would eliminate that problem.
But if there is a value in any cell of the entire row it keeps that row.
I have a long list of IP addresses in an excel column, they all either end with .1 or .3, i want to be able to get rid of any ip address in the list that ends with .1 but when i select the column and choose filter by ends with and put the value (i have tried .1, 1 *1 ".1" and "1") and all it does is remove every value, the column looks like this
i figured the ends with filter would work but i dont know why its not doing what i expected it to, there are several thousand cells and it will be impossible to delete them one by one, how i can just get rid of any cell that ends with .1
What I need to do is (somehwhat) automate the process of filtering or deleting out all rows which have duplicate data in the first column, but not second or third columns. I'm sure it's been done...I tried the Excel out-of-the-box.
Within one column, there are cells with values A, B, and C for example. I want a loop that - delete all rows from the first row to the row where A occurs, - delete all rows BETWEEN where B and A occurs. - and then finally, delete the single rows where C occurs.
This might seem I'm just deleting everything but obviously there are more "A" and "B"s in the column.
1 2 3 A 4 5 B 6 7 A 8 B 9 C 10
So in this example, rows 1 to 3 are deleted since I want to delete row 1 to the row where A is; rows 5 to 7 are gone (B to A); then finally row 8 is gone since C is there. Whether it's A/B inclusive doesn't matter..I just would like to see the (simple) logic.
Macro to delete a row if it contains a particular value in a column. Say for example I have the following:
a b c d 1 x 2 x 3 4 x
I want to be able to put into my macro code that says delete all rows that contain an X in column B. So this would leave just Row 3 remaining.
I could also sort this data so that I get: a b c d 1 x 2 x 3 x 4
That way I just have to delete all the rows less than and equal to 3. Ultimately I'm trying to get a way for the macro to copy the rows that DONT have a value in a particular column. But I figured it might be easier to find a macro which would delete.
I have rows between the Words "vendor" and "sales order" both words are in column A. The number of rows is never constant but needs to loop through the whole document. Is there a way to make a macro to do this?
I need some assistance with a simple macro. Im clueless when it comes to macros.
Heres what I have:
column "e" contains the year built for homes. Some of the fields contain "9999" or "0000" or blank. I need to delete these entire rows. If the year is between 1900 and 2020 I would consider it valid and keep the row.
So I need a macro that says something like this:
if column "e" is not between 1900 and 2020 delete the entire row.
I want to delete all the rows with values between -1 and 1 in column 'I'. I currently set up a macro to do the formatting and conditional stuff that highlights all values above 1 and below -1 - these are the values I need to conduct my analysis on, but I can't figure out how to delete the rows in between. The worksheet has approximately 5,000 rows (and growing) and this would help me clean up the data significantly.
Is it posibile to make a macro that automaticaly delete rows based ona a condition. Condition is to delete rows that have B column value "" or zero. For example:....
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.
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 End With
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
Is there a vba code that can delete the entire row based on two criterias? If a row has a location of Canada and is a female, then delete the entire row.
Name Location Gender Alan Mexico Male Dick USA Male Sharon Canada Female <-- This will be deleted if based on criteria Mike Canada Male
I have a spreadsheet that in column A has either the letters "C", "LP", or is blank.
In Column L it has either numbers 1 through 100, or the letter "D".
What I need it to do is to check and see if the data in column L is "D" and in the same row column A is blank, then delete that row.
Also, if the data in Column L is "D" and the Data in column A is either "C", or "LP", then I need it to change the "D" to "1".
It might be easier to do it separately because once you run the part that deletes the rows that don’t have a “C” or “LP” then I could probably just do one that says if column L = “D” then change to “1”.
Lets see if I can simplify this for you.
If Column L = “D” and Column A = BLANK then Delete Row (this would delete all “D’s” that don’t have the “C” or “LP”)
Sub DeleteBlankRowInColumnA() 'this macro scrolls down Column A if the cell is empty the row is deleted. Dim A As Integer A = 0 Do Until A = 142 If Range(0, "a1") = 0 Then Selection.Delete shift:=xlUp End If Loop
I am a pharmacist that runs reports and I need to sort and exclude data
It is in Excel 2003 format
I run a report that includes a patients name in one column, the medications name in another column and if the medication was withdrawn, wasted, returned or restocked in another column. Withdrawn, wasted, returned or restocked are treated as different functions and each have their own row entry. Patient and medication name are the same in all situations
I need a macro that will look at the patients name and medication name, see if it is the same and delete all rows that have a withdrawal with an associated wasted, returned or restocked.
Each day I am going to have a list of about 300 different ID numbers, which i have already got a macro for creating, that outputs them into a single column on a sheet.
The next challenge Ill face now, is that I'll have a list of maybe 500 ID numbers in another spreadsheet.... I need a way to basically tell excel to keep rows that contain the numbers in 1 column on the list of 500, that correspond with those on the list of 300.
Numbers that are not found on the list of 300 ID numbers, must be deleted, along with the entire row.
I essentially need a macro that runs something like this that i found online, but instead of it just looking for the word "apple" as rows to delete, i would need it to check to see if the number is one of the 300 on my list.... and delete the row if it is not on the list
How to create a macro to search a value and delete the row but I'm having trouble trying to get this to search multiple values. Keep in mind I'm really new at attempting to create a macro so this may look terrible ;-)
I have a list of 20 numbers (changes from time to time) and I need to filter any row containing any one of these numbers out of my results each day. I am currently able to filter a single group of numbers but get an end error every time I attempt to string a group of numbers.
This is what I have so far and is an example. We'll use three numbers as an example.
"12345","12346","12347" are the numbers that we'll use for the example that I need to filter. The code that I have is:
I've got two workbooks, Workbook1 with a list in column a and Workbook2 with a list in column F. I want to compare the cells in these columns and delete the entire row in Workbook2 if there is a match.
