Default Deletion of Data across multiple sheet

Is my assumption correct that your error you refer to is that the line
containing See attached... is being deleted? If so, then following line
suggests there might be spaces in front of "See attached...." and you want to
trim them off so that you can compare See.

If Application.Trim(Left(.Cells(myrow, 1), 3)) _
= "See" Then myrow = myrow + 1

If so then you have an error or logic. The spaces must be trimmed first
before identifying the left three actual characters as follows otherwise the
Left function will return space and Se and when trimmed will be Se.

The following line trims spaces first and then gets the Left 3 characters.

If Left(Trim(.Cells(myrow, 1)), 3) _
= "See" Then myrow = myrow + 1

Please I wouldn't know why this code is not working. I want to delete all
contents below "Tile in month for the Period" in Column A across multiple
sheets in my workbook. I get error. I want it to ignore "see attached file"
i.e should not clear the content where it sees "see attached file".

Sub Clearcontent()
Dim targetcol As String
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim myrow As Long
Dim lastrowtodelete As Long

targetcol = "A"
For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
'If ActiveSheet.Name < sh.Name Then

With sh
myrow = .Columns(targetcol).Find(What:="*Tile in month for the Period*", _
after:=Cells(1, 1), LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext).Row + 1
If Application.Trim(Left(.Cells(myrow, 1), 3)) _
= "See" Then myrow = myrow + 1

lastrowtodelete = .Cells(myrow, targetcol).End(xlDown).Row
.Range(.Cells(myrow, targetcol), .Cells(lastrowtodelete,
targetcol)).ClearContents
End With

'End If
Next
End Sub

All help totally appreciated. Thanks a big bunch.
