Need to give credit where credit is due. This code was provided by Ron de
Bruin not Chip Pearson.

The following code was provided to me by Chip Pearson. As it is now it will
delete all rows that contain an R in the account column. What I would like
to do now is edit the code to delete rows which contain an R in certain
places. The following example should illustrate what I need to do.

Acct Month Long Short
R3423
R7834
243 R0023
432 R3404
QR459
QR232
If the R appears in the fourth place I need to delete that row otherwise do
nothing.


Sub SortandClear()
Dim DeleteValue1 As String
Dim DeleteValue2 As String
Dim rng As Range
Dim calcmode As Long

With Application
calcmode = .Calculation
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With

'Fill in the two values that you want to delete
DeleteValue1 = "*R*"
DeleteValue2 = "5032"

'Sheet with the data, you can also use Sheets("MySheet")
With Sheets("Seg Futures")

'Firstly, remove the AutoFilter
.AutoFilterMode = False

'Apply the filter
.Range("A1:A" & .Rows.Count).AutoFilter Field:=1, _
Criteria1:=DeleteValue1, Operator:=xlOr, Criteria2:=DeleteValue2

'resized to be 5 columns!!!
With .AutoFilter.Range
On Error Resume Next
Set rng = .Offset(1, 0).Resize(.Rows.Count - 1, 5) _
.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
On Error GoTo 0
End With

'Remove the AutoFilter
.AutoFilterMode = False
rng.Delete shift:=xlShiftUp

End With
