Deleting Rows Is Slow To Run/Complete

Sep 1, 2006

I am working with about 50,000 rows of data and am trying to delete all of the rows where there is a zero in Column G. I tried to use an autofilter and copy the data to another worksheet but excel gives me an error message saying that it "cannot create or use the data range reference because it is too complex". If I use a loop to delete the rows, it takes upwards of ten minutes because of the amount of data.

Slow Code For Hiding Rows

Sep 15, 2009

I have some code which looks for the word "Out" in column "L" and hides the row if it finds it. This is running from row 24 to 160 and takes about a minute to run. I've tried two different solutions, neither really quicker than the other.

Excel 2007 :: (Cannot Complete Task With Available Resources) When Trying To Delete Rows

Jul 11, 2012

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.

SUMIF Ignore Hidden Rows, Sumproduct/Offset Too Slow!

Jan 29, 2010

I'm using Excel 2003. The sumif function will not allow me to ignore hidden rows in my data set that have been autofiltered. I tried using the following formula and it worked:

=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(CopiedB!$I$2:$I$65000,ROW(CopiedB!$I$2:$I$65000)-ROW(CopiedB!$I$2),0,1)),--(CopiedB!$A$2:$A$65000=$A22),CopiedB!$I$2:$I$65000)

The problem I am having is that the sumproduct and offset funtions used to ignore hidden rows are considered "volatile" and force a recalculation. Moreover, I have this fomula pasted 100+ times and this dramatically slows things down even when I turn autocalculate off. Is there another way to accomplish a sumif with a user defined custom function in VB? I really need to have the ability to do a sumif that ignores hidden rows and is not dramatically slow.

Regression Error - Non-Numeric Data / Contiguous And Complete Rows Or Columns

Apr 10, 2013

However I have a subject at uni that requires me to create a series of regression models, histograms, correlation matrices etc.

For part of the assignment, i have to run 4 regressions (one for men & one for women) with dependent variable as average wages, and independent as bfast 1,2,3 and dinner 1,2,3 (all of which are dummy variables) (0 for male and 1 for female).

The second two regressions are exactly the same, except average wages must be transformed into log which i have already done.

I dont know how to differentiate the regression models into male and female (if possible). We must also include residuals and residual plots.

I keep getting an error that says non-numeric data, the other says input range must be a contiguous reference.

Clear Rows Vs. Deleting Rows To Avoid #REF! Formula Error - Macro

Jun 9, 2009

I have a macro which is copying data from several worksheets into one consolidation worksheet. When determining where to paste the data into the consolidation sheet, the macro includes some logic to find the last row that has data in it (using e.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row, where "e" is a variable holding the name of the consolidation worksheet).

Once all the data is on the consolidation worksheet, I have a second worksheet with formulas that link to the consolidation sheet. The issue I have is that the first step of my consolidation macro deletes all data on the consolidation sheet to ensure that no data is double-counted). I am deleting the data with logic that simply deletes all rows from 3 to 65536. Once these rows are deleted, Excel returns a #REF! error on my second worksheet which is linking back to this data.

Rather than deleting the rows on the consolidation sheet, I have tried using the Clear and/or ClearContents commands instead. This works (i.e., my formulas no longer error out), but results in the consolidation macro running very slowly (~15 minutes, compared to

Code For Deleting Rows Verses Hiding Rows

May 25, 2013

The first code hides everything just fine based on the date in A1. When I change it to the second code to delete instead of hide it is leaving a bunch of rows that the 1st code hides. Both codes have the same search criteria.

Code:
For Each cell In Range("B8:B5000") If cell.Value Range("A1").Value Then cell.EntireRow.Hidden = True
Next cell

Code:
For Each cell In Range("B8:B5000") If cell.Value Range("A1").Value Then cell.EntireRow.Delete
Next cell

Delete Blank Rows (formula Not Deleting All Rows)

Sep 30, 2008

I have the following codes to delete all blank rows in column A

Dim lastrow As Long
lastrow = Sheet1.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
MsgBox lastrow

With Sheet1
For t = 1 To lastrow
If Cells(t, 1) = "" Then
Rows(t).Delete
End If
Next t
End With

End Sub

Although it is working , it is not deleting all the blank rows at once, I have to keep pressing on the macro button running the macro several times, until all blank rows are completely deleted.

Macro Runs Fast When Rows Added / Deleted Slow When No Rows Added / Deleted

Jun 27, 2013

We have created a macro that basically looks for rows that contain an "H" and hides the row if it does.

Users can add new rows throughtout the year to this spreadsheet. and based on certain criteria, an H or U will be placed in a hidden column which the macro looks at and hides any row it finds an H.

The user has to click on the button that has the macro assigned to it once they have finished working on the spreadsheet.

The problem we're finding is that for users who insert/delete rows, once they click the button it takes up to 15 seconds to run through macro (which is ok). However, users who haven't added or deleted any rows and who click the button, they have to wait upto 5 minutes (which isn't ok) for the macro ro run.

We can't figure out why the macro takes longer to run when no changes have been made?

VBA And Deleting Rows

Sep 21, 2009

I have an excel spreadsheet that contains about 1000 rows and about 25 columns. The file contains employee information, name, id, cost center, department, title, FTE...etc. Column E contains the cost center which is a 7 digit number (i.e. 8001234). Within the 1000 rows of data there somewhere to 70 cost centers. I would like to delete all rows where a cost center does not match a list of 13 cost centers. I'm thinking I need some kind of array where I type in the 13 cost centers in the code, but I'm unsure of the syntax within VBA.

Also, the second step of the code I'm looking for is to delete all columns except for Column B, E, J and L. Those, by the way are Name, Cost Center, Job Title and FTE.

Deleting Rows

Apr 25, 2007

I have a macro that deletes rows. For some reason, the macro bombs out when the selection seems to be too big. Why is that?

deleterow_min = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(1, 6)
deleterow_max = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(1, 7)

Rows(deleterow_min & ":" & deleterow_max).Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp

Deleting The All Rows

Aug 5, 2009

In a part of my code I have something that will delete all hidden rows, like:

For Z = 1 To TotalRows - 1
If Cells(TotalRows - Z, 1).EntireRow.Hidden Then
Cells(TotalRows - Z, 1).EntireRow.Delete
End If
Next Z

I've done it in reverse to be quicker, but it's still quite slow. Granted, I am deleting several thousand rows, but surely there's a quicker way? Thinking about it logically I would presume that (in general) selecting stuff first in Excel and then deleting them appears to be quicker, but I'm not sure how to pull that off.

Apr 24, 2009

I would like to delete rows that are based on these conditions: First ,Do a loop from row 2 to last available row. - Delete rows with same column(column B) that has the same value. However I want the last available row with the same ID to remain.
