Hi,

I need to create a code that once I paste in some data, the code activates and looks down range("A2:A10000") (Or last row, the data will never go past 10000) and if a cell contains a "Y" then delete A2:J2 not entirerow.

Example
[TABLE="width: 640"]

Excel Facts

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
if a cell contains a "Y" then delete A2:J2 not entirerow.

Lewzerrrr,

The following is based on your screenshots, not, on the above quote.

Here is a macro solution for you to consider.

Sample raw data:


Excel 2007
ABCDEFGHIJK
113102489446
2Y4759988108
312786102183
4
Sheet1


And, after the macro:


Excel 2007
ABCDEFGHIJK
113102489446
212786102183
3
4
Sheet1


Please TEST this FIRST in a COPY of your workbook (always make a backup copy before trying new code, you never know what you might lose).

1. Copy the below code
2. Open your NEW workbook
3. Press the keys ALT + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor
4. Press the keys ALT + I to activate the Insert menu
5. Press M to insert a Standard Module
6. Where the cursor is flashing, paste the code
7. Press the keys ALT + Q to exit the Editor, and return to Excel
8. To run the macro from Excel press ALT + F8 to display the Run Macro Dialog. Double Click the macro's name to Run it.

Code:
Sub Lewzerrrr()
' hiker95, 07/28/2017, ME1016458
Dim Addr As String
Addr = "A1:A" & Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Range(Addr) = Evaluate(Replace("IF(@="""","""",IF((@<>""Y""),@,""#N/A""))", "@", Addr))
On Error GoTo NoDeletes
Columns("A").SpecialCells(xlConstants, xlErrors).EntireRow.Delete
NoDeletes:
End Sub

Before you use the macro with Excel 2007 or newer, save your workbook, Save As, a macro enabled workbook with the file extension .xlsm, and, answer the "do you want to enable macros" question as "yes" or "OK" (depending on the button label for your version of Excel) the next time you open your workbook.

Then run the Lewzerrrr macro.

Hey thanks for this, I have data from K onwards so entirerow.delete can't be used, it would need to be ("A2:J2").delete shift:=xlup.

Also, can this be used automatically everytime something in the worksheet changes? e.g if i'm going to paste in the data then the code automatically runs.

I have to update this sheet quite a lot of and as there is lots of heavy formulas it may slow it down a lot, would adding code to turn off formula calculation at the start and reenable at the end work in this situation?

Thanks,

Lewzerrrr,

1. Can I have a screenshot displaying raw data in A1:N4?

2. Can I have a screenshot of what the results should look like in A1:N4?

I need to create a code that once I paste in some data, the code activates and looks down range("A2:A10000") (Or last row, the data will never go past 10000) and if a cell contains a "Y" then delete A2:J2 not entirerow.
The letter Y, does it only appear in col A or can be in col A to J?
When you paste in some data, do you mean paste it in col A to J or could be in another column?
When you paste in some data say in row 100, do you want the macro to look for Y starting from row 100 down, or starting from row 2?

Lewzerrrr,

So, your actual raw data looks like this?


Excel 2007
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO
1ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO
2131024894461010101010
3Y31024894462020202020
4127861021833030303030
5
Sheet1


And, your results should look like this?


Excel 2007
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO
1ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO
2131024894461010101010

Are my above screenshots correct?

The letter Y will only appear in column A.
I only paste in the data from A2:J2.. which can extend down to A2:J1000.
I would like it to start from A2 :)

Hi,

I need to create a code that once I paste in some data, the code activates and looks down range("A2:A10000") (Or last row, the data will never go past 10000) and if a cell contains a "Y" then delete A2:J2 not entirerow.

If you data in Column A is as shown (either numbers or the letter Y in Rows 2 on down), then you can use this Worksheet_Change event code...
Code:
[table="width: 500"]
[tr]
	[td]Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
  Application.EnableEvents = False
  On Error GoTo NoYs
  Intersect(Columns("A:J"), Range("A2:A" & Rows.Count).SpecialCells(xlConstants, xlTextValues).EntireRow).Delete xlShiftUp
NoYs:
  Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]
