Default Delete Rows

How do I delete several rows that don't have the word total. I want to keep
the rows with word total in column A.
Thanks

Do an autofilter and look for CONTAINS Total. Delete the rows you want.

Try autofilter? Custom/ does not equal/ Total, then Delete row, should
leave the ones with Total.
Save the existing file first though, just to be on the safe side.
