deleteing a range from one cell within it?
 

Hello, all-
I'm trying to select and delete a range of cells, based on one cell
contained within the range. Can someone suggest a remedy? Basically, it is from
a time sheet for multiple people, and each person is a 12 row by 15 column
range, repeated down the worksheet. I want to select the employee's number,
delete that person's range and close up the remaining cells. Thanks in advance,
I'm pretty frustrated right now.

If the emp nr is top left corner,
range(activecell,activecell.Offset(12,1)).EntireRo w.delete
should work

Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.Offset(11, 1)).EntireRow.Delete

will prevent you deleting the first row of the next employee.

Yup, that does it, after offsetting to the top left corner from the key cell.
Thank you all , I spent WAY too much time trying to make it all harder than it
needed to be. Thanks again.

It might be easier to read:

activecell.resize(12).entirerow.delete

But I think I'd add a little validation--just to make sure I'm on a correct
cell.
