hello

i'm using code based on Ron de Bruin's site
I want to delete row/s if a specific value exist on either 2 columns
Basically, I want to delete value 1 or 2 on column "A"
and "955.46*" on column "D"


i'm getting run time error '424' what I'm doing wrong??
(line "If Not IsError(.Value) Then" highlighted)

Code:
Sub delete0()
Dim Firstrow As Long
Dim Lastrow As Long
Dim Lrow As Long
Dim CalcMode As Long
Dim ViewMode As Long
With Application
CalcMode = .Calculation
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With
'We use the ActiveSheet but you can replace this with
'Sheets("MySheet")if you want
With ActiveSheet
'We select the sheet so we can change the window view
.Select
'If you are in Page Break Preview Or Page Layout view go
'back to normal view, we do this for speed
ViewMode = ActiveWindow.View
ActiveWindow.View = xlNormalView
'Turn off Page Breaks, we do this for speed
.DisplayPageBreaks = False
'Set the first and last row to loop through
Firstrow = .UsedRange.Cells(1).Row
Lastrow = .UsedRange.Rows(.UsedRange.Rows.Count).Row
'We loop from Lastrow to Firstrow (bottom to top)
For Lrow = Lastrow To Firstrow Step -1
'We check the values in the A column in this example
With .Cells(Lrow, "A") And .Cells(Lrow, "D")
If Not IsError(.Value) Then
If .Value = "1" Or "2" Or Value Like "955.46*" Then .EntireRow.Delete
End If
End With
Next Lrow
End With
ActiveWindow.View = ViewMode
With Application
.ScreenUpdating = True
.Calculation = CalcMode
End With
End Sub

Thanks
Eitan

Hi,

Not sure about why your code is failing, but you might find the code below quicker and easier to maintain. I often use this method.

Code:
Sub ClearOut()
    
    Range("A1").Select
    
    ActiveSheet.UsedRange.AutoFilter _
        Field:=4, Criteria1:=">=955.46", Operator:=xlAnd, Criteria2:="<955.47"
    
    ActiveSheet.UsedRange.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="1"
    Rows("2:2").Select
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
    Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
    ActiveSheet.UsedRange.AutoFilter Field:=1
    
    ActiveSheet.UsedRange.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="2"
    Rows("2:2").Select
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
    Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
    ActiveSheet.UsedRange.AutoFilter Field:=1
        
    ActiveSheet.UsedRange.AutoFilter Field:=4


End Sub

Thank you

I tried your method but it didn't work for me.
Data I need to delete looks like this:
955.460.001.1
955.460.541.1
955.461.654.1

I want to delete all rows begin with: "955.46"
Titles row is row no 4
and I need to use that filter on column D, and delete all 955.46... on row 5 to last row of data.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I assumed this was a money value.

Try line below instead. Change Rows("2:2") to Rows("5:5").

ActiveSheet.UsedRange.AutoFilter _
Field:=4, Criteria1:="=955.46*", Operator:=xlAnd

Please excuse me if you already know or do this ...

I write most of my code by recording it.

Click the Developer tab in excel then click Record Macro.

Manually do what you want the macro to do.

Click Stop Recording and then make any required adjustments to your VBA code.

Yes I know.
I manage to do it.

Here what I've done:
Code:
Sub test()Dim LR As Integer
LR = Range("D" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode = False
ActiveSheet.Range("D4:J" & LR).Select
With Selection
.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="=*955.46*"
End With


    Range("D5").Select
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
    Selection.EntireRow.Delete
    
End Sub

more accurate

Code:
Sub test()Dim LR As Integer
LR = Range("D" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode = False
ActiveSheet.Range("A4:J" & LR).Select
    
ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode = False
ActiveSheet.Range("D4:J" & LR).Select
With Selection
.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="=*955.46*"
End With


    Range("D5").Select
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
    Selection.EntireRow.Delete


ActiveSheet.Range("A4:J" & LR).AutoFilter Field:=1


Range("A5").Select
    
End Sub

I thought my problem solved, but there is still a problem, if i will run this macro twice or more - it delete more rows, even if they are not on the category (955.46....)
Why is that??
The filter works perfectly, but the delete mechanism not work as expected
