Hi guys,


Do you know how to delete an entire row if the date in column A is a weekend day or holiday? I am still an Excel newbie and am wondering how to do it.

I truly appreciate your help, thank you.

weekend is easy, for the holidays you have to maintain a calendar listing the holidays within your Country or your Organization

HI VBA Geek, thanks for the reply.

The holidays are quite few so I can remove their rows manually. How should I remove the rows for the weekend days (VBA or function)?

if you can use an helper column then enter this formula: =WEEKDAY(A1,2)>5 and delete all the rows that are TRUE

How about using this macro?

<code style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 12px;">Sub VenA()
Dim r As Range, cl As Range
For Each cl In Columns(1).SpecialCells(2, 1)
If Weekday(cl, 2) > 5 Then
If r Is Nothing Then Set r = cl Else Set r = Union(r, cl)
End If
Next cl
If Not r Is Nothing Then r.EntireRow.Delete
End Sub</code>
