Delete Rows With Specific Characters In A Specific Column

Dec 10, 2007

Currently I am using the Kickbutt VBA Find Function of Aaron, but I would like to have something that works more efficiently. What I currently do is (assuming all possible values for Column J are A - F):

Find_Range("A", Columns("J"), MatchCase:=True).EntireRow.Delete
Find_Range("B", Columns("J"), MatchCase:=True).EntireRow.Delete
Find_Range("C", Columns("J"), MatchCase:=True).EntireRow.Delete
Find_Range("D", Columns("J"), MatchCase:=True).EntireRow.Delete
Find_Range("E", Columns("J"), MatchCase:=True).EntireRow.Delete

although I just want some code that says: delete all rows except those that have "F" as content in Column J. I already tried something like:

Range("1:65536").Select
For Each cl In Range("J:J")
If cl.Text = "A" Or cl.Text = "B" Or cl.Text = "C" Or cl.Text = "D" Or cl.Text = "E" Then
Rows(cl.Row).Delete
End If
Next

but it also takes much to long. The major problem I think, is that the number of records is variable so I search the entire worksheet...

Macro - To Delete Whole Rows After We 'control' Find Something From A Specific Column

Aug 26, 2008

I am not the best at this, but we recorded a macro and we want to delete whole rows after we 'control' find something from a specific column. WHen we recorded our macro, it finds the first instance and we hightlight the whole row and 'control' 'shift' 'end' and delete all of the rows. We did this because we sorted and made sure the information we wanted to delete was at the bottom of the worksheet. we realized that each day the spreadsheet we pull from an ip address gets bigger and the row that we started from to delete starts on a different row each day. How do we get all the information to delete everyday, even when the row that Owned starts on changes? ...

How To Delete All Words Containing Specific Characters

May 14, 2014

I need a formula which can clean up a huge data set. Essentially i need to delete the entire word which contains the characters "aceae". note that "aceae" is a suffix, but i need to delete the entire word not just the suffix, plus keep the rest of the string. i have tried the "find and replace" function of excel with wildcard, but that deletes everything before/after without deleting the entire word. i have tried a combination of formulas to isolate the unwanted words, but that method is inefficient and inaccurate. below is a schematic of what im looking to do:

Column A ------------------------------ Column B
l. planeri asteraceae africa laselva-----> l. planeri africa laselva
l. planeri moraceae europe singer------> l. planeri europe singer
origin l. fluviatilis bignoniaceae asia----> origin l. fluviatilis asia
alternate l. fluviatilis piperaceae asia---> alternate l. fluviatilis asia

Delete Characters After Last Specific Character Occurence

Jun 11, 2008

I have one column with many numbers. Some have one dash and some have two.

Example:
123-123456-65
012-789546-1
98B12354-889

Is there a way that I can remove all characters after the last – (dash) in the number?
Example:

If number is 123-123456-65
Then 123-123456

If number is 98B12354-889
Then 98B12354

If someone could just lead me in a direction, I might be able to figure it out. However, my code is elementary and most of the time, I record macros and the play with the code until it does what I want.

Delete Rows With Specific Value

Jul 27, 2012

I created the following macro to remove all rows that contain the value 'Shutdown" in column F

Code:

Sub DeleteUniqueValues()
Dim LR As Long, i As Long
LR = Range("F" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = LR To 3 Step -1
With Range("F" & i)
If WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Columns("F"), .Value) = Shutdown Then .EntireRow.Delete
End With
Next i
End Sub

The macro runs without error, but when I checked the spreadsheet, rows matching this criteria were not deleted.

Delete Rows Where Cells Don't Contain Specific Value

Feb 27, 2013

If I have a column of data called "ColStream" and want to delete all rows that don't contain the string "Production", whats the best way to achieve it?

I have tried a for each loop, with INSTR but as this moves down a cell from the cell whose row has just been deleted, skipping the "NEXT" row in the range, it doesn't give the correct results.

Incidentally, the end game is to copy all the remaining cells to the cell immediately below a cell called "StreamsDatabaseStart" in a worksheet called "ProdStreams" should anyone out there be feeling particularly charitable!

Delete Rows That Contain Specific Words

Nov 10, 2006

how to create one macro: I have a spreadsheet with 8 columns with various text headings. Each column has different data (some show dates, some show only figures, some show text). Specifically, column E (entitled "Sub Item Reference") has various text entries (e.g. "Newsletter" or "Booklet"). I am hoping to find a simple macro that will search column E and delete any rows where that column contains the text "Cover" or "Label". I'm sure it's the simplest thing going but I can't seem to work it out.

Delete Associated Rows Not Containing Specific Names

Jun 27, 2008

I have a code that goes through and deletes everything that doesn't contain a certain word, but I have several words ( Names actually) that I need to keep in my sheet, but all others can be deleted, along with their rows...the names are on in Column B...there are about 11 names currently and probably be adding a few more next month...This is a macro that is set for work to go through like I said a lot of Rows and delete all them but those that have the names of the workers I need to keep in the sheet...the names are scattered throughout, which is the reason for a need of a macro to do it for me cause it takes me forever to manually do it each day...The code for just one person I can't get to do multiple names so this is what I came up with based off what I know plus reading hundreds of pages on the net regarding similar style needs, but none exactly the same....

This is the Code that I'm trying to use but unfortunately I get Type Mismtch Error 13 ( I think it's error 13)...what am I doing wrong? (I only am working with one sheet that contains all the data...

Sub SortOutMyTeam()
Dim wst As Worksheet, wstNew As Worksheet
Dim rData As Range, r As Range, rTotal As Range
Dim avNames() As Variant
avNames = Array("Name1", "Name2", "Name3", "Name4", "Name5")
Set wst = ActiveSheet
Set rData = Range("B1:BL" & Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row)
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
wst.AutoFilterMode = False
With rData
For i = 0 To UBound(avCrit) Step 2

Find Rows Containing Specific Data And Delete

Jan 5, 2010

I have a large report that I pull each month listing which products we sold last month. There are certain products I don't want included in the report. Until I can have the report re-written, I'm looking for a macro or a function that will find all the rows that contain these product numbers in column M and delete the entire row. The product numbers I need to delete are always the same, but some months one or more of them might not be in the report if they weren't sold.

In Summary:

Find in column M the product numbers:
c1000
316140a
316140
316295a
316295
316311a

316451a
316451
316450a
316450
316452a
316452

Macro - How To Delete Rows With Specific Criteria

May 21, 2012

I was searching for a macro to delete rows that obey a specific criteria. I downloaded [URL]..... and copied the Loop Example to my WorkBook.

When using Mr. de Bruin example, it worked perfectly, it did really delete the rows that obeyed my ">2" criteria. Although, when using on my workbook, the macro deleted the values, not the entire rows. Here's what's happening:

I would like to delete rows, not only values.

Code:

'The code below will delete every row in the usedrange with "ron" in the A column.
'If .Value = "ron" Then .EntireRow.Delete
'
'I use the A column in my example, change the A to your column in this code line.
'With .Cells(Lrow, "A")
'
'Change ron and the A to your search word and column before you try the macro.
'See the examples on the worksheet if you want to do something different.
Sub Loop_Example()
Dim Firstrow As Long
