If that is really what you want, then go with Jim's code.

Exactly what is the AutoFilter doing for you in this code? With the
exception of preserving the contents of Row 2 (from Columns B through
I) and
providing drop down arrows in its cells, it looks like all your code is

doing is this...

ActiveSheet.Range("$B$3:$I$202").ClearContents

The macro below works fine but I was wondering is there a better way
of
writing this without having to write 8 line items?

Sub ClearSheet2()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$2:$I$202").AutoFilter Field:=1
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$2:$I$202").AutoFilter Field:=2
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$2:$I$202").AutoFilter Field:=3
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$2:$I$202").AutoFilter Field:=4
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$2:$I$202").AutoFilter Field:=5
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$2:$I$202").AutoFilter Field:=6
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$2:$I$202").AutoFilter Field:=7
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$2:$I$202").AutoFilter Field:=8
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$3:$I$202").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("A1").Select
End Sub

GoBow777 -

Thank you gentlemen for your response, I appreciate it. Obviously I'm
not very good with VBA, I recorded the macro and as I said before it
works fine, but as I am still learning, I am just curious; there must
be a better way.

My goal is to reset any filtered rows and clear the contents from the
range ($B$3:$I$202) and leave the drop down arrows (row 2) intact.
