I have been trying to use some snippets on how to delete entire rows on Excel VBA, but I can't modify them to include the "IsNumber" verification.
I need to be able to choose an active area, like:
Set r = ActiveSheet.Range("A1:C10")
And as it goes through row after row (and checking every cell of the area), delete the entire row if a there is a number on a cell.
For example:
NA NA NA 21
NA 22 NA 44
00 NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA
55 NA NA NA
The macro would then delete all the rows, except for the 4th one which is
NA NA NA NA
Take your pick :)
WAY 1 (TRIED AND TESTED)
This uses SpecialCells
to identify the rows which has numbers.
Sub Sample()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim rng As Range
On Error GoTo Whoa
Set ws = Sheets("Sheet1")
With ws
Set rng = .Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants, xlNumbers).EntireRow
rng.ClearContents '<~~ or rng.Clear if cells have formatting
.Cells.Sort Key1:=.Range("A1")
End With
Exit Sub
Whoa:
MsgBox Err.Description
End Sub
WAY 2 (TRIED AND TESTED)
This uses Looping and Count()
to check for numbers
Sub Sample()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim delrange As Range
Dim lRow As Long, i As Long
On Error GoTo Whoa
Set ws = Sheets("Sheet1")
With ws
lRow = .Range("A" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To lRow
If Application.WorksheetFunction.Count(.Rows(i)) > 0 Then
If delrange Is Nothing Then
Set delrange = .Rows(i)
Else
Set delrange = Union(delrange, .Rows(i))
End If
End If
Next i
If Not delrange Is Nothing Then delrange.Delete
End With
Exit Sub
Whoa:
MsgBox Err.Description
End Sub
Way 3 (TRIED AND TESTED)
This uses Auto Filters. I am assuming that row 1 has headers and there is no blank cell in your range.
Sub Sample()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim lRow As Long, lCol As Long, i As Long
Dim ColN As String
On Error GoTo Whoa
Set ws = Sheets("Sheet1")
With ws
lRow = .Range("A" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
lCol = .Cells(1, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
For i = 1 To lCol
'~~> Remove any filters
.AutoFilterMode = False
ColN = Split(.Cells(, i).Address, "$")(1)
'~~> Filter, offset(to exclude headers) and delete visible rows
With .Range(ColN & "1:" & ColN & lRow)
.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=">=" & _
Application.WorksheetFunction.Min(ws.Columns(i)), _
Operator:=xlOr, Criteria2:="<=" & _
Application.WorksheetFunction.Max(ws.Columns(i))
.Offset(1, 0).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).EntireRow.Delete
End With
'~~> Remove any filters
.AutoFilterMode = False
Next
End With
Exit Sub
Whoa:
MsgBox Err.Description
End Sub
Sub DeleteNumeric()
Dim i As Long
Dim rCell As Range
Dim rRow As Range
Dim rRng As Range
'identify the range to search
Set rRng = Sheet1.Range("A1:D5")
'loop backwards when deleting rows
For i = rRng.Rows.Count To 1 Step -1
'loop through all the cells in the row
For Each rCell In rRng.Rows(i).Cells
If IsNumeric(rCell.Value) Then
'delete the row and go to the next one
rCell.EntireRow.Delete
Exit For
End If
Next rCell
Next i
End Sub
Dim currentPos As Integer
currentPos = 1
Do While (currentPos < yourNumberofRow)
If (Range("A" & currentPos).Value.IsNumeric = True) Then
Rows(currentPos & ":" & currentPos).Select
Selection.Delete
End If
currentPos = currentPos +1
Loop
Not try but easy code to understand delete and IsNumeric test.
