i want the rows in above data range that contain any text string like [HTML]10-

there can be anything after "10-" like Q,K,L,M and dont want the rest of the data strings rows and blank rows.

just want the first row(because it contains headers) and the rows that contain "10-"

Hello

That's what you do with an Autofilter:

"does not begin with" 10-

then deleting the records that show up.

If needed, restrict the selection further to exclude rows you still need.

hi wigi, this is the part of the loop, so cant have the manual interefence and also the data string in this sheet is continuously updated, i need vba code for this

 

[fari1]

the code is asked for because autofilters cant be worked out

 

[wigi]

i need vba code for this

And the good thing is that you can use Autofilter in VBA

 

[fari1]

but i dont want autofilter either, the nature of my sheet cant allow me to use that, i've found a formula, that finds me the desired data out of that range, but it is only giving me the first occurance, can't this formula be converted into a vba code that may find me all the occurances of desired data and i wont get the blank rows as well.

=INDEX($A$2:$A$401,MATCH("10-*",$A$2:$A$401,0))
