Good day,

I need to look down a column for a certain value and delete all
occurances. I have done this by filtering using the code below but not
all instances are deleted ?

Sub Test()
ActiveSheet.Outline.ShowLevels RowLevels:=0, ColumnLevels:=2
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=22, Criteria1:="#N/A"
Cells(Range("V5").CurrentRegion.Offset(6,
0).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Row, 22).Select
Selection.CurrentRegion.Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("V311:Z311").Clear
test2
End Sub

Could somebody help with some better code or suggestion.

Thanks in advance

What happens in your test, and why 22 in the autofilter?

Hi Bob,

the 22 is the number of the auto filter field to filter. As stated
previously not all the filtered criteria is deleted.

Hi all, maybe i did not explain my problem properly; I have 151 columns
and each one can be filtered.
There are between 10 and 5000 lines.
I need to look for #N/A in column "V:AB" starting at row 6 and once
found then i then need to delete all instances. This could be scattered
down the rows, however if row 10 has #N/A in column V then the other
columns will also have it in but i cannot delete the row but must delete
the contents of the cells.

This works for me

Sub FilterData()
Dim iLastRow As Long
Dim i As Long

aplication.ScreenUpdating = False
For i = 22 To 27 'V to AB
iLastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, i).End(xlUp).row
With Range(Cells(5, i), Cells(iLastRow, i))
If iLastRow = 6 Then
.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="#N/A"
.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).ClearContents
End If
End With
Next i
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

That of course should be

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Hi Bob,

That works ok, but only clears column 22 and i need it to clear columns
22 to 28.

Thanks,

My filter will be column 22 and then it must only clear the filtered
cells in columns V to VB only.

Sorry, thats columns V to AB

Do you mean that you determine the #N/A in column V, then clear V-AB,
regardless of whether those other columns have a #N/A in that row?

The code I gave goes through each column one at a time.

Hi Bob,

Thanks yes that is correct, if column V has #N/A in it then i must clear
cells V - AB in that row. In other words if the filter 22 filters for
#N/A all exposed cells in V-AB only must be cleared. All other cells in
other columns must not be affected.

Thanks for the help Bob.

You do realise that by filtering on column V, those rows will be exposed for
al columns V-AB? That seems to conflict with your statement '... all exposed
cells in V-AB only must be cleared ...' to me.
