Hello excel guru's,

I have a data output that has two text values which repeat in rows throughout the dataset, Text A and Text B.

The number of rows between Text A and Text B are dynamic, but Text A and Text B are always the bookends and always reside in Column C. What I am looking for is to delete the rows between Text A and Text B throughout the worksheet using a Macro. Additionally there are other rows, not between Text A and Text B that should not be deleted.

Additionally I would explain the problem as: For every instance of Text A, delete rows until instance of Text B. Then look for next instance of Text A and repeat.

I have tried, but failed to adopt these posts and macros http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-...-between-two-other-rows-certain-criteria.html and http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-questions/6483-delete-rows-between-two-specified-values.html as I am a Marco Noob.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
 
I will test this method. I was also able to find a solution using InStr. Thank you very much for your help!

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
