How To Delete Rows Using A "FIND" Formula

Aug 21, 2009

I have a ColA that houses Customer Names...

I need to delete any ROW that doesn't have a customer name SOMEWHERE in the ENTIRE Customer Description...

Say this is the COL A, """Campbell Soup/CA (Queensway)"""
if "Campbell" is in row... then DON'T Delete....

i was thinking how the =find() formula gives a number signifing a "find" within a text, but I don't know how to use that in VBA.

Find And Delete Rows In Vba

Mar 15, 2007

Basically i have a column which runs like this:

Company Name:

Name1
Name1
Name1
BLANK
BLANK
BLANK
Name1
BLANK
Name1

Basically, what I am after doing is getting a script to look through that column and delete any rows that do not have "Name1" in Column A.

So far, i've sorted the column so all the blank cells appear at the top, and the "Name1" cells appear at the bottom. Now what I was going to do was use a loop, and I got as far as this before becoming confused .....

Find Value In Column & Delete All Rows Below

Feb 23, 2009

I have searched high and low for a more efficient macro than the current loop i have. I have a range that varies in size but always follows the same format. After i reach a certain value output from a formula, "4", I want to delete all lines below that line. So I want to find value "4" then move one row down and delete all lines to line 2004. I have attached the macro that i compiled but it takes a couple of minutes to run.

Sub manual()
Dim Firstrow As Long
Dim Lastrow As Long
Dim Lrow As Long
Dim CalcMode As Long
Dim ViewMode As Long
With Application
CalcMode = .Calculation
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
. ScreenUpdating = False
End With
With ActiveSheet
.Select
ViewMode = ActiveWindow.View
ActiveWindow.View = xlNormalView.................

Find Text & Delete All Rows Below

May 17, 2008

I have a report that comes in a txt file. After importing into excel i am left with a bunch of garbage that i dont need. This report is anywhere from 5-15 pages depending on how much product was made that shift. I only need the information off of the 1st page. My question is how can i Find the first occurance of specific text (Site) (will be in column A) and have it select that row and all rows below and delete them.
My biggest issue is the first page can be anywhere from 40-60 rows so I need to find the text (Site) and delete everything below it, which could be anywhere from 500-1500 rows.

Find Value On Sheet & Delete Rows Below

Aug 6, 2008

I am trying to select all the data in every row below where the first "flat" entry in the worksheet is but it will only go to the bottom of the data in the column where it finds flat. Some data in other columns extends beyond this so it is not working for me. It would work for me to select everything from where it finds flat to the very last row 65536 but I can't figure out how to do that with what I have. I am then deleting all this data.

Cells.Find(What:="flat", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Select
range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select

Find Rows Containing Specific Data And Delete

Jan 5, 2010

I have a large report that I pull each month listing which products we sold last month. There are certain products I don't want included in the report. Until I can have the report re-written, I'm looking for a macro or a function that will find all the rows that contain these product numbers in column M and delete the entire row. The product numbers I need to delete are always the same, but some months one or more of them might not be in the report if they weren't sold.

In Summary:

Find in column M the product numbers:
c1000
316140a
316140
316295a
316295
316311a
316311
316451a
316451
316450a
316450
316452a
316452

Delete those rows containing the product numbers above

Find Macro To Delete Rows: 3 Questions

Jun 4, 2007

I have a worksheet that is several thousand rows long. It is sectioned into various "topics" (e.g. Revenue, Profit); each topic (there are about 100) has 10 companies. The 10 companies are the same for each topic. For instance, if 2 of the companies are Microsoft and Intel, then there will be a Microsoft row and an Intel row within each topic.

I am trying to write some code to delete every instance of a company (the user indicates the company in a form). So, for instance, if I want to delete Microsoft, the user would enter the stock ticker, MSFT, into the form and press the appropriate command button. When the command button is pressed, the code should find each row that contains the ticker MSFT (the tickers happen to be in column B) and delete it.

I have written the following unsuccessful
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

Dim Ticker As String
Ticker = TextBox1.Value

'If IsText(Ticker) Then

Range("$A$5").Select


Cells.Find(What:=Ticker, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=True, SearchFormat:=False).Activate..........

Auto Delete Rows To The Top Of The Sheet After Find

Sep 12, 2008

1) Highlight column A, and do a search on the word "Item"
2) Once it finds the word item, move 2 rows above it, and delete all rows above the word "Item"

The word Item at times can be on any row, and its very random, but its always in column, A. I tried doing it with a regular macro, but it seems to remember the row that I used, rather than two rows above the word "Item".

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

MsgBox lastrow

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

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 - To Delete Whole Rows After We 'control' Find Something From A Specific Column

Aug 26, 2008

I am not the best at this, but we recorded a macro and we want to delete whole rows after we 'control' find something from a specific column. WHen we recorded our macro, it finds the first instance and we hightlight the whole row and 'control' 'shift' 'end' and delete all of the rows. We did this because we sorted and made sure the information we wanted to delete was at the bottom of the worksheet. we realized that each day the spreadsheet we pull from an ip address gets bigger and the row that we started from to delete starts on a different row each day. How do we get all the information to delete everyday, even when the row that Owned starts on changes? ...

Delete Rows But Preserve Formula?

Apr 29, 2012

I have an inventory sheet with rows containing a formula. I've placed the same formula in all 65536 rows that Excel 2003 has.

I have a macro to delete unused items. It searches for an item number then deletes that row. (Actually it deletes the item number and a partial row based on an offset, but that was for an earlier version and an entire row would be okay) When a row is deleted, all the other rows move up and Excel creates a new last row (65536) The problem is that this new row has no formulas. While it's probably unlikely that I'll ever blow through 65536 rows, it seems sloppy to leave this unaccounted for.

Is there a way to either add the existing formula(s) to the last row...or insert a new row *somewhere* that is empty except for the formula of the other rows in the sheet? Here's what I have for the existing code.

Code:
'Search for item to delete based on entry to InputBox
Sub Delete_Item()
Dim FindString As String
Dim Rng As Range
Dim YesOrNoAnswerToMessageBox As String
Dim QuestionToMessageBox As String

[code].....

Conditional Formula, Then Delete Rows

Jan 22, 2010

In column A, is a timeline - based on every 15 minutes.
In column H, I use conditional formula to change the cell color of any cell equal to or greater than the value of 00:00:07.
I would like to delete all other rows in column H that is under 7 seconds.
I would like the rest of the worksheet to stay in tact - so I can see the timeline. (or at least column A)
I have tried several macros and vba codes, and it either deletes all the rows or simply does not work with my worksheet.
I am unable to attach a worksheet, but I copy/pasted a simple view. This continues down the page, until 24 hours is complete.
Where 00:00:00 is, I am looking for anything over/equal to 00:00:07 - then delete the rest. The cells are formatted as 'general'.

Macro To Delete Blank Rows With Formula

Jul 30, 2009

I'm trying to find a way to delete blank rows that contains formula. I have two excel sheets.
sheet1 contains information and sheet2 references the values from sheet1. Let's say I put the following values in sheet1:

ColA
AAA
(blank)
(blank)
BBB
(blank)
CCC

After entering above values in sheet1, here's what sheet2 would look like:

ColA
AAA
(blank that holds formula) =IF(ISBLANK(Sheet1!A2)," ",Sheet1!A2)
(blank that holds formula) =IF(ISBLANK(Sheet1!A3)," ",Sheet1!A3)
BBB
(blank that holds formula) =IF(ISBLANK(Sheet1!A5)," ",Sheet1!A5)
CCC

What I really wanted to happen is for macro to eliminate blank rows in sheet2 to look something like:
ColA
AAA
BBB
CCC

Is it something possible?

Prevent Formula References Changing When Add/Delete Rows

Jul 11, 2006

On my excell I have a lot of data on sheet 2 that i automatically pull form a database.

I have this fomula in a cell on sheet 1.

= SUMPRODUCT(--( 'Sheet2'!P5:P50000=1),--('Sheet2'!T5:T50000>TIMEVALUE("01:00")))

The problem is that when the data on sheet 2 gets updated and more lines added, the computer changes my formula for the cell on sheet 1 as well. the new formula will change to

=SUMPRODUCT(--( 'Sheet2'!P5:P50126=1),--('Sheet2'!T5:T50000>TIMEVALUE("01:00")))

when there is 126 lines of new data addes in on Sheet2. Id only 50 lines were added in on sheet 2 then the Formula would change to

=SUMPRODUCT(--( 'Sheet2'!P5:P50050=1),--('Sheet2'!T5:T50000>TIMEVALUE("01:00")))

Formula: Delete Rows If Common Data With Another Sheet

Feb 18, 2007

I have 2 spreadsheets of names (~2500 and ~1800) and a bunch of corresponding data continuing down the row. both are structured this same way:

Example:
Row1: LAST, FIRST, data1, data2, data3, etc...

is there a formula which can "check" the larger sheet for duplicate names (a row with exactly the same FIRST and LAST), and then either:
1) delete these rows from the smaller sheet
2) clear the contents of those rows
3) or at least flag them in some way so I can quickly delete them

it would be quite a task to eyeball and remove these rows one-by-one, so i'm wondering if a formula could somehow do it (I don't really know anything about visual basic)

One other piece of information which might be important:
For these rows containing duplicate first & last names between the 2 sheets, the entire row is not a duplicate entry; only the names will match (columns A & B)... The other columns down the row will have different values between sheet1 & sheet2. Not sure if this changes anything....
