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? ...

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

Excel 2007 :: Macro To Delete And Categorize Certain Data

Jan 10, 2012

What i have is a workbook that can have multiple sheets. Sheet 2,3,4 (if there are) are a continuation of sheet 1. First 2 rows of sheet 1 are headers and the last row of the last sheet (can be 2,3, 4....) is a footer. There are 14 columns (A-N) in each sheet. Col "N" has set status and col I has set names.

What i am looking for is a macro that can perform the following actions in the the set order:
1) deletes all rows where status in col N is "closed"
2) delete all rows where name in Col I is "Many"
3) if there are multiple sheets copy all data in 1 sheet once above 2 are deleted
4) I want to update cell A2, C2, I2, M2 & N2 with Hostel, Direction,Name,Flight & Status respectively
5) Create a pivot table with all data (Col A-N & Row 2 to last) in a new sheet and call it Summary - Pivot
I can then manually select how the pivot will look

Currently i am going through all sheets manually and filtering data. Using excel 2007

Excel 2007 :: Macro To Delete All Data Before Pasting In New Stuff

Nov 25, 2013

I am using Excel 2007 and have a simple enough macro to paste data in to another sheet - simple is what I do best.

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
With Sheets("data")
.Range("B3").PasteSpecial xlPasteAll

End With
End Sub

I am wanting to change this so that before it pastes any data into B3 it will delete all data from B3:AE22.

I have had a look around and found plenty to delete full rows or worksheets but not just to delete the data in those cells.

Macro To Delete Buttons In Specific Row

Aug 8, 2013

I need to have my macro select all buttons in the current row (including the button I clicked on and delete them. There are many rows with buttons. Each row needs to have this button. So I need it to be row specific.

I know that this is how to select the row that the button is in:

VB : sh1.Buttons(Application.Caller).TopLeftCell.Row

But I do not know how to select the buttons in that row. It needs to be included in this:

VB:
Sub move()
Dim shname As String, sh1 As Worksheet, lc As Long, rw As Long
Set sh1 = ActiveSheet
lc = sh1.Cells.Find("*", , , , 2, 2).Column
rw = sh1.Buttons(Application.Caller).TopLeftCell.Row

[Code] .....

After many attempts and alot of research, I have some more code for this problem: This deletes all buttons in the sheet:

VB:
Sub DeleteShapes()
Dim shp As Shape
Dim myVar As Shapes
ActiveSheet.Activate

[Code] .....

And this deletes the current button only:

VB:
Sub pressbuttons()
With ActiveSheet.Buttons(Application.Caller)
.Delete
End With
End Sub

Any way to either limit the first code to just a particular row, or expand the second one to the entire row.

Macro - How To Delete Rows With Specific Criteria

May 21, 2012

I was searching for a macro to delete rows that obey a specific criteria. I downloaded [URL]..... and copied the Loop Example to my WorkBook.

When using Mr. de Bruin example, it worked perfectly, it did really delete the rows that obeyed my ">2" criteria. Although, when using on my workbook, the macro deleted the values, not the entire rows. Here's what's happening:

I would like to delete rows, not only values.

Code:

'The code below will delete every row in the usedrange with "ron" in the A column.
'If .Value = "ron" Then .EntireRow.Delete
'
'I use the A column in my example, change the A to your column in this code line.
'With .Cells(Lrow, "A")
'
'Change ron and the A to your search word and column before you try the macro.
'See the examples on the worksheet if you want to do something different.
Sub Loop_Example()
Dim Firstrow As Long

[Code]....

Excel 2010 :: Find Duplicates Within Specific Timeframe?

Jun 26, 2014

Is there a way to differentiate the number of unique and duplicate entries (considering multiple criterias) using a formula.

I am finding it hard to describe the request hence i have attached a spreadsheet for reference.

The first tab contains the data where I want the result in 'column J'
The second tab contains the metrics of how to calculate the result.

I am sure this will be difficult to understand at first hence feel free to ask as many questions you would like to [only related to the subject ]

For the record, I use Excel 2007 & 2010.

Excel 2010 :: Find And Replace Within Specific Column?

Oct 1, 2012

I have an excel workbook where some sheets have a column called "Name" in Row 3. The column where "Name" appears shifts based upon other criteria so it's not set within 1 specific column.

The real data for the "Name" column starts in Row 5. Is it possible to create a macro that looks in Row 3 for "Name", then once it finds that column, it does a find and replace from Row 5 to the end of the data and replaces every space with a ^.

For example, if I have:

Row 3 Name
Row 4
Row 5 John Smith
Row 6 Jane Doe
Row 7 John Doe
Row 8 Jane Smith

I'd like the data to become:

Row 3 Name
Row 4
Row 5 John^Smith
Row 6 Jane^Doe
Row 7 John^Doe
Row 8 Jane^Smith

I'm using Excel 2010 if that impacts anything.

VBA Macro To Find Specific File & Open

Nov 16, 2008

I've got a VBA macro set up in one Master excel file that manipulates a number of other files. Both the Master and the other files are all in a folder which is currently called C:Documents and SettingsusernameDesktopPipeline and my VBA script has this defined as the filepath and works exactly as I need it to. I will be moving the folder "Pipeline" to a shared drive on my server so my staff can access it, and will be sending it to colleagues who will be installing it on their own servers so they and their staff can use it. Is there a way to amend the code so that the VBA in the Master file looks in the folder in which it is locate, "Pipeline", no matter what the filepath leading to the "Pipeline" folder is?
