Delete Row If Cell Does Not Begin With "L"
Dec 30, 2009
I have a spreadsheet that contains private information, but I'm hoping this is a simple request. If the cell in column A does not contain text that begins (starts) with the letter "L", the row needs to be deleted. The rows that will be deleted usually start with "A2008..." "A2009..." "E2009..." etc. The row I need to keep always starts with "L", then a space, then more text.
I'm looking for VBA code that I can implement into a macro program I have already done so that once I open up a file, I can click a button and not have to do this part manually anymore.

I am preparing one macro and to make below macro more easier.
My Data is not constant. Everyday it get change.
In my data i am trying to delete all rows which begin with "MEANING".
I have prepared below macro but problem here is in range i am taking maximum rows i.e 65000 as i am not sure how many rows will be there in my data which begin with Meaning.
I just wanted to know what is the coding we use to go down untill data end if we are not sure about the range.
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="=MEANING*", Operator:=xlAnd
Range("A3:A65000").Select
Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Select
Selection.EntireRow.Delete

we query SAGE, and have account codes begining xx-xxx. We use the project ledger which attaches a letter on the end depending on the works, i.e. 00-001A, 00-001B, etc
I need to set a paramater to say any that any that begin/contain (i.e. LIKE %) 00-001 filter out, regardless of the letter.
I know the basics of [paramater] or ?, but the ? doubles as a wildcard in the like criteria. Whenever I try to put a paramter value in it shows nothing. I can get it to work for exact, >< etc but not contains or begins. Even if I play with the SQL, nothing!

I am trying to create a formula that sums all the cells that have numbers that begin with 12. For example, here are the numbers in cells A1 through A6 (my actual spreadsheet is much larger):
12
1200
13
1
120
112
I want to pull the 12, 1200, and 120 for a total of 1332.

See attached file...I'm having trouble returning a value for the Alpha-numberics that begin with DMR, which should return 'Dishwasher'. All other values are correct, I'm sure it has to do with the character range but I'm a little stumped.

I have a column that has values ranging anywhere from 1 to 999,999 and I need a way in vba to take whatever value is in the specified cell and place a decimal point at the far left. Example:
change 175526.34 to .17552634
change 376.1 to .3761
change 22987.254 to .22978254
when the code is run I need the selected number to begin with the decimal point.
See, the tricky part is that the length of the number varies and I cant just divide by X to shift so many places to the left..

I want to use the SumIf function to sum cells when other cells begin with certain characters.
I've toyed with a few ideas of how this could work, but i don't know how to specify that the cells need to begin with certain characters. The cells that would be the criteria and the ones that would be summed come out of an Oracle database (and i have no control over the way they're pulled out - yet) so the beginning characters are connected to extremely unique information, so i dont want that to be included in the if part, for obvious reasons.

Recently I have been practising writing my own macros in VBA. I am using Excel 2010.
I have been trying to write a macro to look at two columns in a worksheet (say, columns D and E) and to delete the contents (not the formatting, and I don't want to delete the cell itself) of that cell only if it contains a numerical value (e.g. 1, 2, 256 or any other number). If it finds a cell with letters, then it wouldn't delete the contents of the cell. The cells are currently formatted as "currency" cells.
I have been trying all sorts of things and I just can't get it to work. I can write a macro to clear a range easy enough, but I am stuck on getting it to delete the right stuff. I won't embarrass myself by uploading the code that I have been using..

I have a huge database. I am looking for a macro that can search for a particular word. If a match is found, the macro should do two things simultaneously... (i) delete the contents of the cell in which the match is found........(ii) display the same contents 1 row below and 1 coloumn to the left of this cell where the match is found. For e.g....

I have a sheet in Excel 2004 for Mac that is a patient list with over 2000 patients. I need a rule that will compare values (patient IDs and responsible party ID) in two adjacent cells, if the values are different, to delete the entire row. The goal is to get rid of patients (rows) that are not the responsible party (responsible party ID).

I would like to create a VBA code where it will delete the entire column if the cell value is equal to value in D2
For example:
Sub Delete_Columns()
Dim rng As Range, cell As Range, del As Range
Set rng = Intersect(Range("G2:S43"), ActiveSheet.UsedRange)
For Each cell In rng
If (cell.Value) = D2 _
Then
If del Is Nothing Then
Set del = cell
Else: Set del = Union(del, cell)
End If
End If
Next cell
On Error Resume Next
del.EntireColumn.Delete
End Sub
======
But I think this line is wrong but I am not sure how to fix it - If (cell.Value) = D2 _

Is there a way to count all sheets between sheet "Begin" and sheet "End" if the sheet contains the word "complete"? The word "complete" can be found anywhere in the spreadsheet. If I need to be more specific let me know.

I have some data in sheet 1 column A. However, the amount of data varies everytime. In addition, blanks cells may be present in column A as well.
I have some data in sheet 2 column A. The amount of data also varies everytime. In addition, blank cells maybe present as well.
what I need here is to match the values in column A sheet 1 to column A sheet 2, and if it matches to delete the entire row in sheet 1.
However, i want to keep all blank cells in column A sheet 1.
Sheet 2 blank cells to be removed if any.
how do I do that in VBA? A lot of forums talk about a specific value but none on non specific values.

I am trying to delete a rows that contains a certain value. When I run the command from VB, it works. When I run the command from the tools menu in Excel, it works. When I run the command by clicking the command button located on the spreadsheet, it returns an error message "Delete method of range class failed" and highlights the line
Cells(x, 2).EntireRow.Delete
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'Deletes expired coupons
x = 9
Do
If (Cells(x, 7).Value < Cells(2, 3).Value) Then
Cells(x, 2).EntireRow.Delete
Else
x = x + 1
End If
Loop Until Cells(x, 2).Value = ""
End Sub

I however need a macro that will delete the cell contents if the "Start of Cover Period" (column AK) date is > than the "End of cover period" (column AL) date.
Thus it must compare ak2 with al2 and if ak2>al2 then clear both cells. if AK2

I need to delete a row if one of the cells in that row contains a Z but not the ones that contain a ZC# (i.e. ZC5, ZC6).
For example.. the row that contains ADH-15-STD ZKPINTC1-2500 needs to be deleted.

I am writing on a macro to get some documents in order, but need some assistance in cleaning up please.
I would like to have a macro which deletes me the whole ROW if the cell in this row DOES NOT contain the words "V1", "V2" or "V3" (without "). ATTENTION! The cell does not only contain V1, V2, V3, it contains several words and these might be one of them, hence I need the macro the check the cells content for these values.
Example:
Column A
1. I want a V1 setup
2. I want a hamburger
3. I want a V5 setup
4. I need a dog
The macro should delete rows 2,3,4, only row one remains as it is.
However, I would need to be able to define the range of the checked cells, since I dont want to check the whole document, merely a part of it.

My current macro will sort column A in ascending order, then I wih to wipe out some of the rows. Starting at row 511, you will see there are values that say "znot assigned".
What can be written so that if a value in column A reads "znot assigned", it will delete the whole row?

In a report that's generated by my company's ERP, there are often a lot of zeros in cells that do not contain any information. I would like to delete these so that the cell has literally nothing in it, but I would rather not use a loop. Is there any macro code that would do this?

I am trying to put together a spreadsheet that uses vlookup formula in column C to reference column A so that it tells me what the corresponding data is to the column A input. The hard part is that the corresponding info given in my vlookup, I would like to be able to over-ride in the next column (D) and make the column C cell right beside it's data delete only if something is entered into column D. Since column C already has a Vlookup formula in it, I am unsure how to proceed.
