How can I search for a string (€śDraft Documents€ť) in sheet1 and then delete
all the rows above the row containing the string and then delete the last two
rows in sheet1? Thank you

Dim rRange As Range

On Error Resume Next
Set rRange = Range(Cells(1, 1). _
Cells.Find("Draft Documents", _
Cells(1, 1), xlFormulas, _
xlWhole, xlByRows, xlNext, False))
On Error GoTo 0

If Not rRange Is Nothing Then
rRange.EntireRow.Delete
Else
MsgBox "'Draft Documents' Not found"
End If
