Hi,

I have a very large amount of data that I would like to tidy up using a macro. I've sorted the data by the relevant columns and now I have rubbish data at the end, which I would like deleted.

Column A has a Ticket Number. Once column A stops having a ticket number, any data contained under columns A:K needs to be deleted.

In this particular case (and it will change depending on the months data) Cell A11721 is the last cell with a ticket number, so (in this case) all data contained in the next 24,104 rows, so A11722 : K35825 needs to be cleared or deleted.

I don't expect my data to exceed 50,000 rows so on that basis I tried the following VBA code..

Code:
Sub DeleteBlankRows()
   Dim Cl As Range
   For Each Cl In Sheet1.Range("A2:A50000")
     Cl.EntireRow.Delete = IIf(Cl = 0, True, False)
   Next Cl
End Sub

However, it's not working and reporting error "Object Required". I'm not sure if this is the best way to do it though.

Any ideas please?
 
It's the 2x $2,469.95 figures on row 6 which won't go away (I've cut out the bulk of the data for this test purpose). Any idea why it might be doing that?
Yes, it's because I had to guess what you might have on your sheet and where, & I guessed incorrectly, & why I suggested some time ago. ;)
A small set of dummy sample data using one of the methods linked from my signature block below would also be very helpful.
Make this change
Code:
<del>lrA = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row</del>
lrA = Cells.Find(What:="*", LookIn:=xlValues, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
