I have data of about 3176 rows,
But after every record one row is blank,
I have to manually delete each blank row.

Please Find the attachment....
I have a huge excel file and every row is repeated, e.g.:
john smith 10 23
john smith 10 23
bob jones 11 22
bob jones 11 22
etc..
So I want to delete every second row.
Is there a command to do that?
I have a file that contains multiple rows of data. I built a macro that will then hide rows with a $0 balance. When the macro is completed, my spreadsheet is only showing the lines with a $ amount. (The $0 rows are hidden)
What I'd like to do is then format the unhidden rows so that each alternate row is color coded. This will separate the rows visually so I can more easily follow the rows across to view $'s per line.
I've attached a sample spreadsheet (it does contain the macro to hide the $0 rows). How can I then format the remaining rows with alternate shading?
Currently I am using Excel 2007. I want to merge data of alternate row of a particular column in Excel.Also i want to remove merged row. E.g.
Name City Pincode
John Mumbai
John 400009
Carol Delhi
Carol 110001
Carol Pune
Carol 411079
I want output to be ----->
Name City
John Mumbai-400009
Carol Delhi-110001
Carol Pune-411079
macro/formula for the above requirement..?
i have this code which inserts blank rows in alternate rows,
Code:
Sub insertrow()
' insertrow Macro
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Dim count As Integer
Dim X As Integer
For count = 1 To 20
If activecell.Value "" Then
activecell.Offset(1, 0).Select
[code].....
what changes should i make in this code to insert rows only when ther are now blank rows. So first time i run, blank rows are already there, and when i update some data at the bottom and re-run it inserts blank rows again.
I do an analysis that contains 100 or more rows with 1 of 2 row labels in column A; "existing" or "retrofit." There may be numerous successive rows labeled "existing" in a given place where there is no retrofit. Rows labeled "existing" contain existing equipment details such as area, equip description, operating cost. Rows labeled "retrofit" contain recommended efficient replacements with details such as area operating cost and savings. I have to display total cost and savings. Right now I use the awful method, F1+F3+F4+F5... for existing and F2+F6... for retrofit. This is a terrible method, time consuming, prone to error, etc. Is there a way to total rows with specific labels when the row labels are not consistently alternating? Would like to attach an example spreadsheet but... the permissions say I may not, for some strange reason.

I've seen a previous post from 2007 where someone asked for a formula to do the reverse of this. 'Domenic' provided a formula =INDEX($A$2:$B$6,INT((ROWS(D$2:D2)-1)/2)+1,MOD(ROWS(D$2:D2)-1,2)+1) which converted
a
1
b
2

At the moment I do it all manually, and it takes forever. I am sure there must be a simple way of doing it. I am using Excel 2003, but could work in a newer version if required.
I have tried to define an alternative start-up folder (my goal is to have a PUBLIC.XLSB to store Macros every one can use)
BUT: When I do this, Excel does not start with any open workbook anymore. It starts with a blue background, and need to click "New" first for a workbook to open and work in.
How do I avoid this? One solution that would work, but requires the user to have Macros activated, is to add a workbook during the opening of Excel, but I would like to avoid this.
I have an excel file with multiple sites and I need to delete empty rows base on two repeated words in column A. Empty Rows need to be deleted between the cells in column A called Litter and Community. There are other empty rows that need to stay in so only rows between "litter" followed by "community".
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have some code that worked perfectly in Excel 2007 but crashes Excel 2010.
The part of the code that appears to be the problem is this:
Code:
For i = LR To 2 Step -1
If Cells(i, 15) = "Delete" Then Rows(i & ":" & i).EntireRow.Delete
Next i
For info., both screen updating and calculation are already both set to manual.
I have a large file with a bunch of color coding and need to delete my red rows only.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm on mac Excel 2010 and i'm trying to delete rows..but for some reason they don't go! My workbook is a basic one, just filled with a bunch of formulas, i can't understand why it wont let me delete it.
When i do try to delete it, nothing comes happens and when i try to delete a large amount it comes up with 'not enough memory, continue without undo deleting rows' but my laptop has 8GB and my other laptop has 16GB so i can't see why a 16GB laptop wouldn't be able to delete it.
In a large table what is the simplest way to delete all empty rows? Excel 2013.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a massive spreadsheet (ca.110 000 rows [excel 2010). I need to cut this monster by deleting all the cells that do not have a certain cell value within them.
Say that in my column A there are different entries (text type). I would like to delete the ones that do not match the following criteria:
"mytextascriteria*", where * somehow stands for the rest of the string.
Strictly speaking I can only determine beggining of the string I want to perserve but the values at the end of that string are changing.
I found the thread about deleting entire row based on a cell value here:
Delete entire row based on one cell?

Otherwise is completely pointless to do it manualy with these amout of records.

I'm using this code to find values of "FEP MHS" or "LSD MHS" in column S and if column S containes either of these values it deletes the entire row from the spreadsheet. I need this to work on a spreadsheet that runs on a daily basis and each day it contains a different number of rows. I have used this code to successfully delete most rows that contain these values in Column S but for some reason it does not delete all the rows, typically leaving 6 - 7 rows that contain these values. I'm using Excel 2007 I need code that finds the last row used and deletes the entire row if these values are present.
Dim CelRSLHMHSD As Range, RngRSLHMHSD As Range, iRSLHMHSD As Long
Set RngRSLHMHSD = Columns("S").SpecialCells(xlConstants, xlTextValues)
For iRSLHMHSD = RngRSLHMHSD.Count To 1 Step -1
If RngRSLHMHSD(iRSLHMHSD).Value = "FEP MHS" _
Or RngRSLHMHSD(iRSLHMHSD).Value = "LSD MHS" _
Then RngRSLHMHSD(iRSLHMHSD).EntireRow.Delete
Next iRSLHMHSD
a VBA problem I have and I do not know how to solve. I use Excel 2003.
I have a workbook with a table; all cells except the table area are locked so at users cannot add any data. The table is on D2: H?. The workbook is password protected (users can only "Select unlocked cells", "Format cells" and "Sort"), and for that reason there is a "Add Rows" macro button so they can add more rows if necessary. It works well.
There is also a "Delete Rows" button, but it does not work as I want it to do. If the table is for example on D2:H4, and I select a cell on row #3 (ex. D3, or E3, or H3) and click on the button it deletes row #3, if I click on the button again it deletes row #4, and if I click on the button again it also deletes row #5 and so on, but it should not do it because all rows below row #4 are locked and should not be deleted.
I found on the Internet a code that I modified, but I do not get it to work. Below are the two macros.
My original macro (it deletes even locked rows):
Sub DeleteRows()
'
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="123"
'
Selection.EntireRow.Delete
'
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="123", DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True _
, AllowFormattingCells:=True, AllowSorting:=True
End Sub
The macro found and modified (the original rows are commented):
Sub DelRows_2()
Dim rngDelete As Range
Do While rngDelete Is Nothing
On Error Resume Next

I have VBA code that attempts to delete an entire row from my worksheet:
Code:
Cells(3,1).Select
Selection.EntireRow.Delete
This works fine on small data sets, but on larger data sets it gives me the error message, "Excel cannot complete this task with available resources". This happens even when I try to do the deletion manually (without VBA code). Clearly, the code itself is not the problem.
My document has about 250,000 rows and 2,500 columns. While this is big, it is significantly smaller than Excel's documented limit of 1,048,576 rows and 16,384 columns.
I am using Excel 2007. My computer has 2GB of RAM but even when I try it on a computer which has 8GB of RAM it gives me the same error. If I "ClearContents" instead of "Delete" it works fine. For my purposes, however, deletion is entirely necessary.
I am trying to adapt a macro which deletes all rows in Worksheet 1 where the date in column K differs from a date in Worksheet 2. The date in Worksheet 2 will change each day.
I think the macro below could be used, but don't understand how to replace the "Value = ":70:" with a reference to the master date in Worksheet 2.
Sub test() Dim lr As Long, i As Long lr = Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row
For i = lr To 1 Step -1 If Cells(lr, 1).Value = ":70:" Then
Cells(lr, 1).EntireRow.Delete End If lr = lr - 1 Next i End Sub
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 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.
