Delete Rows Based On "other" List

Oct 29, 2008

I have a list of names in sheet1 that is 10k rows..
In sheet 2, I have a list of about 10 names.

I need to delete any rows in sheet 1, that matches any name in sheet 2.

Any ideas?

I know I can do this "if cells.value = "ALAN" then delete row
but how do you accomplish this without doing the above for every name.

I would like the VBA to work like this::

If cells.value = ( any name in the 2nd list ), then delete row.

Excel 2010 :: Can't Delete Filtered / Visible List Rows From List Object

May 19, 2014

I have pulled a SharePoint list into my workbook. The list object (table) is still linked to the SharePoint list, as I'd like to synchronize it later on. I have filtered it with an autofilter. I'd like to delete all of the visible rows. I have tried a billion things to no avail. I have been searching Google for hours now. None of the examples work.

Delete Rows Based On Criteria & X Rows Below

Mar 5, 2008

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

Delete Rows Based On Values In Rows Below

Jun 20, 2008

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.

Macro To Delete Rows That Have Cells That Don't Contain Values From A List

Mar 7, 2014

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

PHP Code: 

Sub Delete_Rows()Dim rng As Range, cell As Range, del As RangeSet rng = Intersect(Range("A1:C20"), 
ActiveSheet.UsedRange)For Each cell In rngIf (cell.Value) = "Apple" _ThenIf del Is Nothing ThenSet del = cell
Else: Set del = Union(del, cell)End IfEnd IfNext cellOn Error Resume Nextdel.EntireRow.DeleteEnd Sub

Delete Rows That Contain Data From User Defined Dynamic List Within Workbook

Oct 7, 2012

I have a financial dataset which I need to "clean" before manipulating/analysing.

Each row of the data represents a completed transaction and the first step is to delete rows that are done with particular (internal) clients; the client data (the client's name) is in Column D.

Currently, I delete the unwanted data by autofilter and delete (code below), however this means the clients to be deleted are only defined within the code. I would prefer to have a worksheet within the workbook where the user defines the clients by adding or subtracting their name from a list.

I have created a dynamic range for the client list by inserting a Named variable along the lines of "=OFFSET(!$B$3,1,0,COUNTA($B$3:$B$200)-1," which works fine.

However how do I work this list into my code so that it works when new clients are added or deleted?

Current code for deleting unwanted client data:

Sub filterdelete()

Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count

With Range(Range("D1"), Range("D" & LastRow))

[Code] .....

Delete Rows Based On Two Criteria Within Each Row

Sep 24, 2009

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...).

Delete Rows Based On Criteria?

Jan 23, 2010

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.

Delete Rows Based On Content

Jan 5, 2009

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 ?

Delete Rows Based On Two Conditions

Mar 29, 2012

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.

Delete Rows Based On Cell Value?

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

Delete Rows Based On Rules

Aug 21, 2007

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

Delete Rows Based On Values

Nov 10, 2008

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.

Delete Rows Based On Two Columns

Dec 22, 2006

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”)

THEN

If Column L = “D” then change to “1”

Delete Rows Based On Criteria ..

Jul 19, 2007

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.

Delete Rows Based On Data From Two Columns?

Sep 21, 2012

two things on the attached sheet.

First problem: in column B, I have a formula based on contents of column A. However, the limitations of 7 nested IFs leaves me with errors - I need 3 more IFs. Is there a way around that?

Second problem: I need to show the row of the first (earliest time in column A) and the last (latest hour in column A) record for each name. I've been sorting by name and time, then manually deleteing the rows I don't need. I know there's a better way, but I can't find it!

Code To Delete Rows Based On Condition

Apr 24, 2009

I have an Excel spreadsheet that is given to me weekly, but I'd like to remove repetitive and empty rows before presenting it to someone. It is set up like this:

Row 1, A1, contains the word Project.
Row 2 is blank
Row 3 is blank
Row 4 is blank
Row 5, A5, contains the word Organization.
Row 6 is blank
Row 7, A7, contains a 6-digit number starting with 3.
Row 8 is blank

(all of the above starts over again (loops) approximately 30 times)
The final row contains the phrase "Grand Total"

*Row 5 is repetitive and is not required. I'd like to delete it.

I have too many empty columns. Getting rid of them (and Row 5) would greatly shorten my spreadsheet.
I am aiming for:
Project
301111

Project
301112

Project
301110
(Repeat until finished)

Grand Total:
