VBA - Search Same Value In Another Column And Delete It?

Aug 30, 2012

I have 4 values in column A (Let's say A1:A4)

These values are also contained in column Q among/with many other values. I am looking for a script that will find these 4 values in column Q and delete them by shifting the cells up. I need something like:

Look A1, If the same value exist in Q column Then delete the same value cell in Q and shift cells up
Look A2, If the same value exist in Q column Then delete the same value cell in Q and shift cells up
Look A3, If the same value exist in Q column Then delete the same value cell in Q and shift cells up
Look A3, If the same value exist in Q column Then delete the same value cell in Q and shift cells up

Search Column Delete Row If Value Found

Sep 5, 2007

I need a VBA code that will search column H for any value that DOES NOT start with "9" (this is a character field). If it finds a cell that doesn't start with "9", I would like it to delete the entire row. It will need to repeat this process for every cell in Column H that has a value and then stop.

Search Column Bottom Up Then Delete Rows Based On Value Found

Jul 7, 2009

I've attached a dummy worksheet that shows constant values of 1.00 in columns D and E. In the actual workbook, user action will sometimes cause these values to change to something other that 1.00. The user may wish to delete the action that caused the change.

I need a macro that will search from the last cell in column D upward to the first instance of a cell that is not equal to 1.00 and select that cell and those immediately above with the same value as the first found cell.

For example, in the attached worksheet the search would start in the last cell of Columd D and search upward. It would find cell D23 and upward to D19. These entire rows would be deleted.

Search For Text Delete This Row And Delete The Row For Every Instance

Apr 29, 2008

I have an formula if statement that returns "deletethisrow" if the test is true.

For every occurence of "deletethisrow" I want to delete the row. The number instances will be variable each time I run the file. So maybe it will find that string, maybe it will find 10 instances. I want to do some kind of loop that won't error out when it cannot find "deletethisrow", but will delete the rows for each instance where it does find this string.

I know it was verbose, but if I just do a loop for a fixed number of loops it will error out if it runs out of rows to delete.

Search For Certain Text, Then Delete The Row, Plus Others

Jul 9, 2009

Here is what Im trying to do: I have a VERY large excel file (15,000+ lines) that has groups of text (this is all in one column)

I want excel to search for the cells with "UID" and delete that row plus every non-blank row above it. (so it deletes the entire "group") Here is example layout of what Im working with. The end result should be only "groups" without the text "UID" following it.

ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
UID = example

ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3

ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
UID = example

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 15,000 lines of text.

VBA Loop To Search And Delete Certain Cells

Feb 24, 2014

I'm trying to create a function that will search for a certain value and if that true, delete certain cells in the same row. So far, I've come with the following and not sure how to write particular line.

So this function will go through column G and count the rows since it could have 1 or 50,000. So for example if column G2 has a value anything other then "Pending" then I need cell T2:Z2 to be deleted.

I know this line is the source of error Rng("T & Rows.Count:Z & Rows.Count").Select but I don't know how to express it.

Sub Check_Status()
Dim iLastRow As Integer
Dim Rng As Range
iLastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "G").End(xlUp).Row
For Each Rng In Range("G1:G" & iLastRow)
If Not Rng.Value = "Pending" Then
Rng("T & Rows.Count:Z & Rows.Count").Select
Selection.ClearContents
End If
Next

Search And Delete Entire Columns

Sep 27, 2007

I have Column Headers in Row 1 (except column A), What I need to do is write a Macro or some code to

1.Search the entire row 1 for column headers containing the suffix _CSV and delete the entire columns.
2.Shift all remaining columns to the left so no blank columns exist. (There is a time stamp in row A that I wish to keep where it is.)


Next I would like a separate routine to sort the columns in the order of a Pre-defined list that I specify in a range. For example the list of column headers reside in the Range (A1:A200)

Search For Commas & Delete Decimals To The Right

May 11, 2007

I get a report several times a week consisting of several columns and some hundred rows. There must be no comma signs in column E but the reports that I get will sometimes have commas in Col E anyway.

I have a macro/vba code in another workbook that I start by a keyboard combination. This macro will adapt the look of the report, but it can't take care of the comma issue. However, I have managed to remove the comma and replace it with nothing but that is not sufficient. I want to delete the comma and all figures to the right of the comma sign. There can between 1 and 4 decimal numbers.

I need to integrate some kind of vba code that will check every cell in column E and if it finds a comma in any cell, the comma must be deleted and all the numbers to the right of the comma too.

Hope you can help me with this issue because I have been googling around for two days now... It drives me crazy.

I have posted this question here too but it has not yet been solved:

Search For Matching Text, Then Delete Rows Above It

Jul 8, 2009

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.

Delete Item From Search Results Userform

Oct 24, 2011

Any way to use a search form I've created to delete data from the original sheet. What I'm doing here is using advanced filter to copy data from the original database onto a temporary sheet to display in this list box. I've gotten almost everything to work properly, but since this is populated by advanced filter, I don't really even know where to start on my delete button.

Code:
Private Sub Search()
Dim Criteria As Range
Dim SearchRange As Range
Dim SearchResults As Range
Set Criteria = Range("Values!Criteria")

[Code] ......

So I was thinking something like this:

Code:
Private Sub cmdDelete_Click()
lstResults.Value.delete
End Sub

But I know this won't work.

Delete Multiple Columns By Column Name No Criteria Need, Just Delete Them

Jun 24, 2009

I would like a macro to find the columns named "apple" and "peach" and delete them. These would always be in row 1 but would always be in different column letters which is why I want the macro to simply find these columns by their name and not by their column letter.

And yes, I do mean the entire column altogether, shifting entire columns to the left. Wipe it off the face of the earth

Code To Search For Items Copy To Different Sheet And Delete Them

Jan 27, 2014

I have a workbook with one sheet (called "Pipeline") and another sheet called "Completed". The Pipeline sheet is used to keep track of all of the tasks that the team are working on, and then when the task is completed, it needs to be moved to the "Completed tab".

I currently have managed to write some code that looks for items marked "completed" in row G of the "Pipeline" sheet, then copies them over to the "Completed" tab, and then deletes the row from the "Pipeline" sheet.

There is one macro to copy the completed cells (called "Transfer"), and then another to delete the cells (called "Delete"). I then just have macro called "Clean" that just calls the transfer macro, and then calls the delete macro.

Often, there are 6 tasks marked complete, and only some of them will be copied over, but all of them will be deleted (a disaster).

Transfer Macro : [Code]....

Delete Macro : [Code]....

Overall Macro : [Code]....

Macro To Search Multiple Values And Delete Rows.

Nov 5, 2008

How to create a macro to search a value and delete the row but I'm having trouble trying to get this to search multiple values. Keep in mind I'm really new at attempting to create a macro so this may look terrible ;-)

I have a list of 20 numbers (changes from time to time) and I need to filter any row containing any one of these numbers out of my results each day. I am currently able to filter a single group of numbers but get an end error every time I attempt to string a group of numbers.

This is what I have so far and is an example. We'll use three numbers as an example.

"12345","12346","12347" are the numbers that we'll use for the example that I need to filter. The code that I have is:

Adding Search Function To Delete Matching Records..

Jun 1, 2009

I'd like to do is click the delete button and when clicked, it will search for matching records in column A & B and if they match... I'm thinking the code for that is <> but I'm not sure, then delete that record, and shift the cells up. Do this until the search results are empty below the delete button. Like I said, it's probably more understandable to look at the workbook.

Search For Value In Multiple Column And Row Array And Return Value In First Column?

Dec 16, 2013

I have an array 20 Rows x 42 Columns, which contains a competition draw.

I need to search this array for a unique value and return whatever the time is in the first column on the same row as the value appears, and enter it into column C in the Womens Times sheet.

I also want to return into column D the court number from row 3.

The reason i want this automated is as teams enter / withdraw we may need to drag the games from court to court to fill gaps, so i want the Womens Times sheet to update accordingly.

I have been messing around with index and match, but cannot quite get it to return what i need.

I have attached an example ... on the sheet "Womens Times" in column A there is a list of game numbers ( #1W etc etc) indicating womens game #1 and so on. The main sheet i am using also has a seperate tab for the mens games, hence the designator of W or M on the end of the game number.

Search A Column Of Dates & Return Data From Another Column

Jun 8, 2009

I am trying to get a formula that will search one column range “B” and pull data from another, “D”. Dates are down column “B” and some of those dates are repeated several times. In column “D” there is only one piece of data (a number) entered for each day. Eg, if 08/06/2009 has been entered 3 times in column “A”, there will only be data entered in 1 of the cells of column “D” and blank cells in the other 2.

Column B -- Column D
07/06/09 -- 54000
08/06/09
08/06/09 -- 62000
08/06/09
09/06/09 -- 61000

I couldn’t get the LOOKUP function to work properly, as there are duplicate dates in column “B” and I often got a result of 0 returned.

As I’ve only got 1 piece of data added in column “D” per day and any duplicate days would just have blank cells in “D”, I can actually get a SUMIF function to work, SUMIF(B3:B60,DATE(2009,6,8),D3:D60). Although it does work, it doesn’t feel right using it and I would prefer a formula that would return just the one cell, instead of the sum of a range of cells.

Excel 2010 :: VBA Code To Search Multiple Columns And Delete Any Duplicate Cells (not Rows)

Jun 12, 2014

My Excel program (Excel 2010) currently has several columns and each column looks for and pulls data from a specific file on my computer. Then I need to delete any duplicate data entries, count the number of unique entries and track the changes through a chart. I have everything done except I cannot figure out (or find on the internet) a way to search in multiple columns (more than 2) and delete just the duplicate cells. I want to delete the cells in a way where there is one left. For example if the code 12gf is duplicated three time, I want to be left with one 12gf (it doesnt matter what column the original one is left in). Additionally, column length changes and they are not sorted. I have attempted to attach an image of an example file below.
