Row Deletion Question
I have a file with over 3 thousand line items. What I am trying to do is
delete an entire row based off an entry in column L. Example Location Customer number CA 23432 OR 13245 TX 45321 FL 43215 I want to search for 13245 & 45321 and delete those rows. Or better yet would be to identify those I want to keep, 23432 and 43215, and delete all other rows. In this example the location column,as well as other entries in the file, means nothing it was listed here because I felt two rows would show my example better. Thank you Joe |

Unfortunately it'll delete also the header row, therefore save it in a separate sheet in order to copy it back when finished!

Row Deletion Question
Stefi,
Not sure where I have gone wrong but this is the third time I have tried to say thank you for your suggestion. However, even though I only identified two samples in my original post I need to be able to identify multiple customer ID to get rid of. I need to search for a certain ID the select and delete that entire row. The method you posted appears to be for only two selection and as I said I need multiple choice to search, identify, and then delete if the customer ID is present in the sheet. Thank you again.
