Jim,

The ,2 says that it is a text type constant.

xlCellTypeConstants << is this equivalent to text?

Hi Zsalleh .

As an alternative, try:

Sub Tester()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
Columns("C:C").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants, 2) _
.EntireRow.Delete
On Error GoTo 0
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Hi all,

Can anyone help me with changing the vba code below to delete each

row
with a text field in column c1:c10000? I am new to vba and just

manage
to hack something up. However this code only deletes blank cells and
not cells with text.

Also is there a better way to specify the column range instead of

doing
it by specifying the range like this...Set Rng =
ActiveSheet.Range("C1:C10000"). i.e. Is there a way to make it

dynamic,
so regardless of how many rows there are, it will run through each

and
every row with data in it. The problem that I faced is my data has

the
occasionaly blank row between each row with data.

Anyway, enough said. Here is my code. Thanks in advance.

Sub DeleteText()
'
' Delete blank lines in column C
' Macro recorded 23/08/2004 by zsalleh
'

'
Windows("Workbook v2.xls").Activate
Sheets("Consolidation").Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim Rng As Range
Set Rng = ActiveSheet.Range("C1:C10000")

For ix = Rng.Count To 1 Step -1
If Trim(Replace(Rng.Item(ix).Text, Chr(160), Chr(32))) = ""
Then
Rng.Item(ix).EntireRow.Delete
End If
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
