Hey Gang,

I am trying something new and need some assistance. I get a new workbook
each month with several hundred records on one worksheet. I have written
the simple macros to do the following:

1. Create a new WorkSheet
2. Copy all data from Sheet1 to Sheet2
3. Delete the unneeded columns
4. Autofit the remaining columns

The last thing I need to do is to delete all rows where columns "G" or "H"
do not include the word "Power". I can't simply autofilter because I need
all records where "either" columns have "Power" in it.

Any code idea? I am sure it is simple, but my VBA use in Excel is much less
than my knowledge in PowerPoint or Word (and that is somewhat limited)! HA!

TIA!

something like this. UNTESTED

if cells(i,"g")<"Power" and cells(i,"h")< "Power" then cells(i,"g").entire
row delete

Hi Bill,

Add a helper column (say column M ) to your data and insert the formula:

=OR(G2="Power",H2="Power")

in cell M2 and drag this down to the last row of data.

Then autofilter your data using TRUE as your criterion in column M.

This should return all the data you want to delete.

Don,

Still having some problems with your sample code. Here is what I have so
far:

Sub DeleteUnneededRows()
Dim i As Integer

For i = Cells(Rows.Count, "g").End(xlUp).Row To 2 Step -1
If Cells(i, "g") < "Power" Or Cells(i, "h") < "Power" Then Cells(i,
"g").EntireRow.Delete
Next

End Sub

I should end up with around 120 (of 650) records, but I end up with only one
record and it doesn't even have "Power" in column "G" or "H". While
attempting to learn as I go, I am confused as to what the "g" in "For i =
Cells(Rows.Count, "g")" and the "g" in "Cells(i, "g").EntireRow.Delete".

Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.

This does work, but since I am trying to automate this process, I need to be
able to autofill the entire column with this formula since the number of
records will change each month. Any clues as to some code to look at the
range in say Column "A" (starting at A2) and copy this formula down in
Column M (also starting at M2)?

Had you put the if statement on one line then the end if would NOT have been

Or use a continuation line to break the line such as

the simple macros to do the following:

1. Create a new WorkSheet
2. Copy all data from Sheet1 to Sheet2
3. Delete the unneeded columns
4. Autofit the remaining columns

The last thing I need to do is to delete all rows where columns
"G"
or
"H"
do not include the word "Power". I can't simply autofilter
because
I
need
all records where "either" columns have "Power" in it.

Any code idea? I am sure it is simple, but my VBA use in Excel
is
much
less
than my knowledge in PowerPoint or Word (and that is somewhat
limited)!
HA!

TIA!

Just an addendum
And if you had posted it like that originally, then it wouldn't have
looked
like it was on two separate lines (due to wordwrap).

Had you put the if statement on one line then the end if would NOT have
been
necessary.
Or use a continuation line to break the line such as

Sub deleteifnopower()
For i = Cells(Rows.Count, "g").End(xlUp).Row To 1 Step -1
If UCase(Cells(i, "g")) < "POWER" And _
UCase(Cells(i, "h")) < "POWER" Then Rows(i).Delete
Next i
End Sub

Had to end the "End If", but this does work. THANKS!

Another great idea! I was running into some syntax problems
working
with
the code Don provided (hence, UNTESTED). I'll try this method as
well
and
report back.

THANKS!

Hi Bill,

Add a helper column (say column M ) to your data and insert the
formula:

=OR(G2="Power",H2="Power")

in cell M2 and drag this down to the last row of data.

Then autofilter your data using TRUE as your criterion in column
M.

This should return all the data you want to delete.

Hey Gang,

I am trying something new and need some assistance. I get a
new
workbook
each month with several hundred records on one worksheet. I
have
written
the simple macros to do the following:

1. Create a new WorkSheet
2. Copy all data from Sheet1 to Sheet2
3. Delete the unneeded columns
4. Autofit the remaining columns

The last thing I need to do is to delete all rows where
columns
"G"
or
"H"
do not include the word "Power". I can't simply autofilter
because
I
need
all records where "either" columns have "Power" in it.

No, because there are no syntax errors in any single command/line. It is
only when compiled that VBA recognizes that the constructs are unbalanced.

Pasting the code from your original posting displayed no highlighting.
