Hello,
I've seen some variations of this on the forum, but not really what I'm looking for. I have a list of users that's created through a Pivot Table, which I named "UserPivot." I also have a set of data on a worksheet. I want to check through that list of data and, if the username in column D doesn't appear in UserPivot, I want to delete the row of data. Here is what I have so far. I know my "If Not UserPivot..." line is not right, but I'm just not sure how to reference that little pivot table!

Dim r As Integer
Dim UserPivot As Object

For r = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("New Data Add").UsedRange.Rows.Count To 1 Step -1

If Not UserPivot.Exists(.Cells(r, "D").Value) Then
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("New Data Add").Rows(r).EntireRow.Delete

End If
Next
 
It looks like it worked! It takes some time to run, but that's not a big deal. I know you mentioned searching from the bottom of the list up to the top, rather than top down. Does this macro do that?

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
This starts at bottom and works to top yes
And sorry for the typos also should have only been 1 period in front of Cells(

I fixed the one period - no biggie! I have other code in this macro that I think are searching a deleting top-down. Since that's technically a new topic, I'm going to post a new thread to see if someone can "reverse" them for me.

Thanks so much for your help with this! You've been a lifesaver!
