Hi
I want فخ delete entire row based on helper column (G) .should match the whole item for each cell in column G with column B then should delete entire row , but be careful you will see many similar items may be you think should delete it but in reality not . should match the whole item in column G with column B. if you see the part of item is existed in column B but not whole as in column G then should not delete it.
I have about 8000 rows and every time I will add new items in column G.

thanks again, Alex
just I want understand this
If you have borders inside your data set that is a little trickier, while other formatting moves with the cell when the data is sorted borders stay with the row number they are applied to
is it problem even I use your suggestion ?

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
thanks Peter for your code .;)
You're welcome. Since I had used Clear when ClearContents is apparently better for you, and I had omitted a "." I'll post the full amended code here.
If this still does what you want then you might consider amending the 'Mark as solution'.

VBA Code:
Sub Del_Rows_Amended()
  Dim RX As Object
  Dim a As Variant
  Dim nc As Long, i As Long, k As Long
  
  Set RX = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")
  With Sheets("ACS")
    RX.Pattern = "\b(" & Join(Application.Transpose(.Range("G2", .Range("G" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Value), "|") & ")\b"
    nc = 6
    a = .Range("A1:F" & .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
  End With
  For i = 2 To UBound(a)
    If RX.test(a(i, 2)) Then
      a(i, 6) = 1
      k = k + 1
    End If
  Next i
  With Sheets("OUTPUT")
    .UsedRange.ClearContents
    With .Range("A1").Resize(UBound(a), nc)
      .Value = a
      If k > 0 Then
        Application.ScreenUpdating = False
        .Sort Key1:=.Columns(nc), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes
        .Offset(1).Resize(k).EntireRow.Delete
        Application.ScreenUpdating = True
      End If
    End With
  End With
End Sub

thanks, but I've found Alex Blakenburg 's suggestion doesn't work well !
from the first time will keep formatting and borders I make it manually for just specific rows and delete the borders for the rest of rows and when run the macro every time will delete borders and number format for all of rows.

Sorry, then I don't really know what you need. :(
well, the pictures will express my problems
PIC1 I create formatting & borders also number format C: E manually
1.PNG


what I want when I run the code every time should be like this(PIC2)
2.PNG


but your code when run the first time as in PIC3 , this is what I got
3.PNG


and when run again this is what I got as in PIC4

Since you have code moving the data to the OUTPUT sheet, why not have the code apply the relevant formatting to the used area as well?

On OUTPUT make sure that the heading row and row 2 have the formatting that you want. Doesn't matter about any other rows. You only have to do this once.

Now try this code a few times with different items in column G of ACS sheet.

VBA Code:
Sub Del_Rows_v4()
  Dim RX As Object
  Dim a As Variant
  Dim nc As Long, i As Long, k As Long
  
  Set RX = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")
  With Sheets("ACS")
    RX.Pattern = "\b(" & Join(Application.Transpose(.Range("G2", .Range("G" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Value), "|") & ")\b"
    nc = 6
    a = .Range("A1:F" & .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
  End With
  For i = 2 To UBound(a)
    If RX.test(a(i, 2)) Then
      a(i, 6) = 1
      k = k + 1
    End If
  Next i
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  With Sheets("OUTPUT")
    .UsedRange.Offset(2).Clear
    With .Range("A1").Resize(UBound(a), nc)
      .Rows(2).ClearContents
      .Rows(2).Copy Destination:=.Offset(1).Resize(UBound(a) - 1)
      .Value = a
      If k > 0 Then
        .Sort Key1:=.Columns(nc), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes
        .Offset(1).Resize(k).EntireRow.Delete
      End If
      Application.Goto .Cells(1, 1), True
    End With
  End With
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
