Default Delete entire row with a positive number

Martha, the main problem is that as you delete a row, you end up
skipping the next row, for example if B2 = 5, and B3 = 5, first you
delete row 2, now B2 holds the value that was in B3 and you said to go
to "Next i" which means the original value from B3 never gets checked.
Also the syntax for the Cells object is backwards, Cells(2,i) where i =
6 refers to Row 2, Column 6. The best approach to deleting rows is to
move backwards through them:
Sub click()
Dim i as Integer
With Sheet1
For i = 6 to 2 Step -1
If .Range("B" & i) 0 Then .Rows(i).Delete
Next
End Sub

This is what i have, but it is siftong through columns.

Sub click()
Dim i As Integer
Sheet1.Select
Sheet1.Range("a2:b5").Select
For i = 2 To 6
Cells(2, i).Select
If Sheet1.Cells(2, i) 0 Then Sheet1.Rows(i).Delete
Next i
End Sub

PLEASE HELP
