Hello, I am trying to find a way to use VBA to clear all cells below row 1 on an excel worksheet.
Row A has headers I want to keep but would like vba code that I can put into a button to clear all cells under row 1, so clear rows 2,3,4, etc.. Also the sheet is called "User Info". So would like to see i could incorporate that

Tried using this but it is clearing the whole worksheet
first book is the workbook i dim


VBA Code:
 firstbook.Worksheets("User Info").Cells.clear

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
Assuming that you have set 'main' appropriately, test this.

VBA Code:
main.Worksheets("User Info").UsedRange.Offset(1).Clear

I am getting a run time error 1004
clear method of range class failed

at the main.worksheets part

VBA Code:
Sub test()

Dim main As Workbook
Set main = Application.ThisWorkbook

main.Worksheets("User Info").UsedRange.Offset(1).clear


End Sub

This is similar to how the page is laid out with the row of header is the one i want to keep then everything end to be cleared and the header is on row 1 goes from A to row IN, if that helps too

value 1value 2value 3value 4value 5value 6
name 1name 2name 3name 4name 5 name 6

The code worked fine for me with that set-up.
There must be something different about your worksheet.

To test, start a completely fresh workbook, name a sheet 'User Info', put some dummy data into each of the 4 cells A1:B2
Put the code into that workbook and run it. See what happens.
