On my worksheet, I have values in columns A-H. The following code has worked
up to now, but I have just realised that if values in any other column
exceed Column A, they are likely to be deleted (which I don't want).

Set DelRangea = [a1].End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0)
Set DelRangeb = DelRangea.End(xlDown).Offset(-1, 0)

Range(DelRangea, DelRangeb).EntireRow.Delete

In a situation where I have, say, values in cells A1:A8; B1:B8; C1:C8;
D1:D14; E1:E14; F1:F14; G1:G12; H1:H12, can DelRangea be extended so as to
include Columns B to H so that the rows to be deleted are just the blank
rows, leaving one blank (i.e., Row 15 for above example) as a divider?

Thank you for any help

The state of the worksheet before you execute the code is not
unambiguously defined. So, it is hard to offer any specific advice.
Consider using ActiveSheet.UsedRange or [a1].CurrentRegion. If neither
meets your requirements, loop through the various columns and keep
track of the largest row number encountered.

Also the code you shared doesn't delete all rows except the first empty
row. It deletes all rows except 65536. If the intent is to delete all
unused rows, it cannot be done. An XL worksheet will always have 65536
rows (and 256 columns).
