Delete The Whole Row If Any Cell In A Certain Column Has Certain Text

Jul 1, 2009

Note: The "Bread Type" column will ALWAYS be in row 1, BUT will ALWAYS be in a different column letter, so I would like this macro to find the "Bread Type" column by name rather than by column number. All criteria should NOT be case sensitive.

In the example below, rows 2, 4 & 5, have the text "Wheat" or "Rye" in the "Bread Type" column, therefore, all 3 of these entire rows should be deleted. Yes, I do mean the ENTIRE row, wipe these rows off the face of the earth

I'm using Excel 2010). I have column I, which is the sum of columns A and B (first and last names of patrons), and I have used conditional formatting to identify all duplicates in column I with red text. I would now like a macro to find red text in column I and then delete the corresponding rows.

I've been looking around on the web for a while and have cobbled together this code stolen from other people's macros:

[Code] ....

When I run it, I get the following error:

Excel doc is called "stupid mailing list.xlsm", sheet I want to run the macro on is called "voters".

Find Part Text On All Sheets & Delete The Column

Sep 26, 2007

I am trying to move through the worksheets and delete all columns with "Accession" in contained in them. I have to do this with an external macro as the spreadsheet with the data is created from another program. I tried this and get an 'Object or With block variable not set' error and the debug highlights the Cells. Find line of the code.

Also, the number of columns could be variable within the spreadsheet as it is compiled by the other program.

Sub DelAccessionNum()
Dim Wrkst As Worksheet
For Each Wrkst In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
Cells.Find(What:="Accession", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=False _
, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
On Error Goto Completed:
Selection.EntireColumn.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
Completed:
Next
End Sub

If Text Of Cell In Range Matches Text Of Cell In Column - Match Formatting

Jul 5, 2012

Trying to create a button that, once clicked performs the following task:

Checks whether the text in a cell in the column X2:X40 matches the text in a cell in the Range A2:U14.

If it does, the formatting of the cell in X2:X40 (eg background) must change to match that of the corresponding cell in A2:U14.

Only 1 cell in the range will match 1 cell in the column

For example:
Before click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a clear background

During click:
matches these cells
changes X4 so that it also has a yellow background

After click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a yellow background

Delete Row If Cell Text Matches Known String

May 21, 2008

I have an excel file, and on some rows, the "B" column contains the text " Total:" (it does have a leading space). I would like to loop through the first 200 rows (maximum length of the file) and delete all the rows that contain " Total:" in column "B". I have tried:

For i = 1 To 200
range("B" & i).activate
If range("B" & i).value = " Total:" Then
rows(activecell.row).select
selection.delete shift:=xlUp
End If
Next i

When I step through that code, it just skips over the IF function as if B1 does not equal " Witness:"

VBA - Delete Column If Cell Value Of Range Is Equal To Another Cell

Nov 5, 2013

I would like to create a VBA code where it will delete the entire column if the cell value is equal to value in D2

For example:

Sub Delete_Columns()
Dim rng As Range, cell As Range, del As Range
Set rng = Intersect(Range("G2:S43"), ActiveSheet.UsedRange)

For Each cell In rng
If (cell.Value) = D2 _
Then
If del Is Nothing Then
Set del = cell
Else: Set del = Union(del, cell)
End If
End If
Next cell
On Error Resume Next
del.EntireColumn.Delete
End Sub

======

But I think this line is wrong but I am not sure how to fix it - If (cell.Value) = D2 _

I have data that covers multiple rows that I need to merge into one row.

Header:| InvoiceNumber | Type | Name

Row2: | 1000 | Payor | Smith, Mary
Row3:| 1000 | Payee| Jones, Henry
Row4:| 1000 | Payee | Jones, Bob

I need to get those four example rows down to one row such as:

Header | InvoiceNumber | Payor | Payee
Row1: | 1000 | Doe, John & Smith, Mary | Jones, Henry & Jones, Bob

The number of payor/payee can vary between 1 and several. I need some way to loop through and keep appending the names in one cell separated by a "&". And then deleting all the duplicate rows (based on InvoiceNumber).

Code To Delete Column If Cell Contains Value

Jul 1, 2014

I am attaching a sample file for reference.

On the sheet titled Price List, in row 1, I have an =IFERROR(HLOOKUP( formula to show what I need. The Data Pull sheet can be updated using a third party software, and retailers can be added or deleted. The purpose is that if a retailer is deleted from the Data Pull sheet, it will automatically be removed from the list on the Price List sheet, rather than just showing a bunch of N/A's in every cell. Then if it is re-added in the future, it will repopulate on the Price List sheet.

The formula I have in row 1 is my manual way of showing whether or not the retailer was deleted. If it contains EXCLUDE, you can go in and manually delete the column. However, I would rather have a macro do this.
