View 9 RepliesI have put together a macro that will delete rows (called DeleteUnwantedRows) in a spreadsheet that contain the phrases "no further action" and "not applicable" ... However the macro does not appear to be working.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a macro to delete entire rows based on the a partial text contained in column A. For example, I have a list of names that I need to keep but I need to delete the rows in which column A contain cells starting with the following.
BOOKLET 201, PROMO
LOTTO, PRIZE 2
PBT 2, STW WEEK 4
the numbrs in these cells increment therefore I can not make it a specific to the cell but need to select based on Booklet, Lotto and PBT.
I need a macro that can look at multiple (say three) rows and delete those rows if they match another three rows in the worksheet.
For example:
1 0
3 1
5 7
4 4
6 5
8 3
1 8
5 2
3 9
6 5
8 3
1 8
7 5
If three rows are the same, then one set is deleted (it can be either bottom or top set). I would like to do this for rows 1-500 in the worksheet.
I'm trying to write a line of code in my VBA macro that goes through all of column B and if there is text in the column to go to the next cell down and if there is no text to delete the entire row. I have the bricks I just cant build the house. I need the macro to do this for rows 8 to 500.

The columns are A To AJ, I need to delete all columns with the exception of columns M, N, R
Column M contains currency (GBP, Euro)
Column N contains dates
Column R contains various agent log ins, such as LI111222AB, LI222111JM, IFCTest & HOTAYLORL
The row number can vary (Average 1,000), I need to delete all rows that do not contain a log in which begins with LI in column R
Once this is done, subtotal by column R (agent log in), column N, & column M
What i'd like is a macro that will delete all cells that don't contain the word pagelibrary somewhere in the cell. As these are weblogs, pagelibrary can be in many different places in the link due to redirects etc, so the macro would have to be flexible with that word. All cells are only one column, in column A. Also if it is possible to delete everything before the word pagelibrary that would be helpful as well as some of these links are very long (and possibly duplicates due to capitalization and redirects).
I've done some searching and this code is the code that closest matches what I want to do. I am by no means a VBA expert; I can decipher a little of what code does, I just can't write it .
Sub DeleteRowEqualTo()
‘Hold Shift Key To delete rows Not equal To
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Dim currentRow As Long
Dim lastRow As Long
Dim activeColumn As Long
Dim activeValue As String
Dim currentValue As String
lastRow = ActiveSheet.Cells.SpecialCells(xlLastCell).Row
activeColumn = ActiveCell.Column
activeValue = ActiveCell.value ................................
I am trying to write a code that would remove rows with any sort of letters in them. I have looked up other ways of deleting rows, but I cannot find the script that would encompass all (alphabetical) letters.
Need to solve my problem in the thread "Type Mismatch Error Message". Now a new problem has come up in the same code, so - according to the rules - I've started a new thread. (This one is most likely due to my poor knowledge of VBA syntax).

Each day I recieve a spreadsheet with thousands of row. In col A there is data that has "-NCA1" or "NCA2" as the suffix. I have to "delete" these rows before proceding.
I'd like to know if there is a way to do this with a macro and ideally delete a wildcard suffix with "NCA*" in case any 3...4..5 etc are added.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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.

Here is what Im trying to do: I have a VERY large excel file that has groups of 4 cells, a blank, then another 4, repeating. Kinda like the following:
ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
UID = example
ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
UID = example
That pattern continues for about 3000 lines. However, if you noticed, some of the "groups" dont have the 4th line "UID = example".
Here is what Im trying to do. I want excel to search for the cells with "UID" and DELETE it plus the 3 rows above. So that only the "groups" without the UID remain.
Now Im thinking this may be impossible, but I've seen some crazy things done with excel macros and was really hoping someone can help me out. Otherwise Im doing this manually for 3000+ lines of text.
I am trying to figure out how to have some VBA look down Column 1 and where the Cell's string value = "GRANDTOTAL", to DELETE that ROW and ALL ROWS below.
Can anyone help me out in writing the Visual Basic code?

I am trying to create a macro that will delete everything below a certain word.
The code I tried to use is the following. This produced an error:

iStart = Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(180, 1)).Find(" NET INCOME").Row + 1

View 9 Replies View Relatedmacro to delete certain rows from a sheet based on the value of a cell?
I'm tryin to get it so if the value in "F" is NOT 150, 151, 152, 153, 154, then i want that row deleted.
this should leave me with data that contains either 150 - 154 in column F.
I have a table of data A2:H1000 (this gets longer every week). Within that data every so often i have a row which is blank from A:G, but has a value in H.
I want to create some code that checks the rows and if the cell A in the row is blank, to delete the entire row.
If I have a table (see below), is it possible to create a macro to delete rows that do not have defined data. In the example below, I would want to delete rows 4 through 7 as there is no date in Columns B through D.
A B C D
1 2008 100 200 300
