I am using the following code to filter for data I do not want and then to delete those rows and show remaining data. It works fine except when the filter comes up empty and there is no unwanted data to delete.how to improve this code to accomodate this situation?
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=4, Criteria1:=">" & dweekend, Operator:=xlAnd
Range("A2").Select
Range(Selection, ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell)).Select
Selection.EntireRow.Delete
ActiveSheet.ShowAllData
Thank you for reading
I'm trying to filter and delete unwanted rows as I need row where dates is within a specified range.
How can I do this using AutoFilter? or are there any other alternatives?
I am aware this is probably very simple, but I haven't been able to find a usable macro yet. I would like the data in the workbook that is not "Tuesday" (column L) and is not "3" or "4" (column I) to be deleted. All rows that have "Tuesday" and either "3" or "4" should not be deleted. Each row that is not deleted must have Tuesday in column L. All other cells are blank intentionally. The workbook will remain the same titled WKBK1 (no need to put the output data in a separate workbook nor separate spreadsheet).
Do you know what the macro would be so I don't have to copy and paste a formula over a large number of cells?

I'm using excel 2010. I'm working with columns of values where most of the values are numbers - which is fine, and there are some numbers that have a "p" at the start of them.
e.g. Column has 49, 52.2, p56.7, 34
OK, I want to preserve the 56.7 but I want to delete the "p". I'm thinking I've got a mental block as to how to delete the unwanted "p"s but I can't think of how to do it at the moment! My code goes as follows:
If Left(Cells(1,1),1) = "p" then
'delete the "p" and leave the remaining number in tact
End if
I recorded a Macro to open a workbook, copy and paste data from one excel workbook to another, and close the workbook which was opened. Everything works fine except:
because of the amount of data that I am copying, I get a message box saying "There is a large amount of information on the Clipboard. Do you want to be able to paste this information into another prgoram later?" with a Yes/No button.
So now I have to click the "No" button before my macro closes the excel file. Is there a simple line of code that will by-pass this?
I am assuming it has to do with the following:
Windows("Book1.xls").Activate
ActiveWindow.Close , savechanges:=False
My spreadsheet has 600rows and the vertical scroll bar ends at row 459424. I have attempted to delete all of the extra rows by holding SHIFT and CTRL, striking the down arrow then right-clicking on the left margin of highlighted row numbers and choosing delete.
But the unwanted rows are still there and my vertical scroll bar is not correlated to the 600 rows.
After doing some searching I found a macro here which imports multiple text files into one workbook, keeping each text file as a seperate worksheet, each worksheet named the same as the original file name (minus the .txt extension).
However, it adds a blank line between each line of text. So I get this:

This doesn't happen when I use the import wizard, or when I just open the file from the File -> Open menu.
My text files are always the same format (number of lines, etc.), so it's easy to delimit and insert forumlae as needed, but those extra lines are breaking a macro I've previously written to parse the data.
At the moment, there is no compile error or runtime error, but if I manually attempt to open the file (that was successfully read from), I get the message that the file is already open and is locked by myself (the user) and that multiple Excel processes are still running (I checked the task manager).
How do I close this Excel file (no changes to be made since I only read from the file) and quit Excel from running ?
Here is what I have at the moment :
Dim FirstName, Surname As String
'file path and name for the Excel file
Dim FileNamePath As String = "C:UsersMRCDesktopMRC FilesVisual Basic FilesSwimManager 2014CurrentSeasonDATASquadData.xls"

I was wondering if there is any code using an on-click method. When clicking a button i need excel to exit the file/sheet without saving (no prompts) and then re-open the exact same file/sheet once it has closed.
In a way this is like a refresh button.
I am using MS Excel 2010.

The above was imported to Excel from another software and somehow those unwanted rows with "0" were created.
Would like to delete those unwanted row and combine the reason on those rows into their respective rows above.
Please note: this is just a small part of the file. The file is big and row with "0" doesnt occur in a prodictable patten.

For everything that doesnt equal EM, LN, LW and TH in column A, everything should be deleted in column B.
For the remaining EM, LN, LW and TH, i would then like it to delete / (forward slash and all characters after this) so that this would make my life easier.
I am using an autofilter to delete chunks on unwanted data, by using Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlUp)).Select however it picks up the header row. Is there anyway I can either get the selection of data to select one less line, or a way to get it to leave the header line?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with many spreadsheet named Sheet1, Sheet2 and so on. Each sheet is filled completely upto 65536 rows. This data is being picked up from a CSV file. In this file there are sites with each site there is a assciated set of data. What happens is the data that extracts data does not differntiate between sites and when it reaches to the end of worksheet it splits the data into next sheet. So I am trying to create a macro to check each spreadsheet starting with the last sheet in the work book for example last sheet in the workbook is seven it should go to sheet6 and if there is a blank row after row 64000 it should cut all the rows and move them to sheet7. Then it should goto sheet5 and do the same and keep on doing it until it reaches sheet1.

View 8 Replies View RelatedCame across an example in a VBA book, wrt adding custom menu items. This example included code for deleting the menu item before closing the workbook.
Is there a reason you'd want to do this? The example already had provisions to delete the menu item if it already existed before the code ran, so you wouldn;t end up with multiple items...

p.s. is there also a way to leave only the rows I want?
I read in a txt file with the code below. There's some kind of special character in the last 3 lines of the input file that makes the macro crash. I don't need anything in those 3 rows. How can I delete them before my Do Until loop?

The Macro asks the user to point at the location of a report, it then copies information out of that report and pastes it into a master sheet. The part I am having trouble with is closing the file that data has been copied from.
I have tried different things to close it such as
I'm making a workbook which I want to distribute widely. It will have a lot of changes to the menus which happen 'onOpen'.
I am keen to not spoil peoples special menu setups on closing the workbook.
If I understand correctly, on closing, Excel writes the current menu settings to the .xlb file. Does anyone know of a way to prevent it doing this so that peoples setups are left unchanged?
Presumably there is code that will do it but I've searched a long time and found nothing.
I close an existing excel file I need to automatically save it to another folder as the same name. I don't want any prompts or save as boxes to appear when this happens.
I need to do this as I use the file all the time, but need to save it on to a network where others can view it.
Need to find out how I can restrict a worksheet to show only the columns and rows that I want. For example, I want to show columns A to H, and rows 1 to 25, and nothing else - I don't want there to be a column G, or a row 26, just blank grey space. I know it's possible, because I've seen it done : D . But the closest I can get to is: View > Page Break Preview, which isn't quite what I'm after.
