Default VBA - Delete row if cell contents bold text

That didn't work for me. It had problems with successive cells being blank
(as expected).

Sub BBB()
Dim lastrow as Long, i as Long
lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row
For i = lastrow To 1 Step -1
If Cells(i, 2).Font.Bold Then
Rows(i).Delete
End If
Next
End Sub

avoids that problem.

Dim CCell As Range

On Error Resume Next
For Each CCell In Intersect(ActiveSheet.Columns(2), ActiveSheet.UsedRange)
If CCell.Characters.Font.Bold Then CCell.EntireRow.Delete
Next CCell
On Error Goto 0

This only works if the entire cell is bolded; if you need to find if any
individual character is bold you would have to step through each Character

in
CCell.Characters - that would also take significantly more time to run.

So
hopefully this simple version is what you need.

How can this be modified to delete a row if bold text is in a specific

column?

On Error Resume Next
Columns(2).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireRo w.Delete
On Error GoTo 0

Thanks!
