    Delete fixed Rows and Columns

    I have a daily variance report I export to Excel and every day I have to delete certain rows and the certain columns before I can run a macros to delete all the zero value rows. I can not run this macros before the time as the the rows and columns that I delete contain zero values and thus I will lose most of my work if I run the Macros before hand.

    The rows and columns are set, so the exact same rows and columns are deleted every day. So I need a macros to delete the set rows and then another macros to delete the columns. I'm not very good with programming so any help will help.


    Thanks in advance...

    Re: Delete fixed Rows and Columns

    Ok so luckily this should be a very easy thing but let me start with a few questions.


    What rows need to be deleted?
    What columns need to be deleted?
    If you already have a macro to run AFTER you delete said columns and rows, why not include the code in the beginning of THAT code so you can just run one macro?

    I can give you the list off rows to be removed but it's a couple if pages (30) worth. I thought I would save you the hard word and add it if I knew where or how to include it in the code. The rows will be specific lines number and rows so it has no barring on the content of the cells.

    If we can add it to once macros it will be great. Just please keep in mind that I'm not the smartest peanut in the packet when it comes to programming.

    Sub HideRowsByZero()
    'Update 20131107
    Dim Rng As Range
    Dim WorkRng As Range
    On Error Resume Next
    xTitleId = "KutoolsforExcel"
    Set WorkRng = Application.Selection
    Set WorkRng = Application.InputBox("Range", xTitleId, WorkRng.Address, Type:=8)
    For Each Rng In WorkRng
    If Rng.Value = "0" Then
    Rng.EntireRow.Hidden = True
    End If
    Next
    End Sub

    Range("A:D, H:K").delete 'This deletes columns A through D and H through K

    Sorry my phone was going nuts on me and wouldn't let me edit this post so I gave up on it.

    Re: Delete fixed Rows and Columns

    So to delete rows or columns you have a few ways to do it.

    You can use the Range, Rows or Columns as shown below.

    Columns ("A:C").delete

    Rows("5:6").delete

    Range("A:A").delete or
    Range("1:1").delete


    So lets assume you want to delete row 5 and 10 and columns E and J use the following code:
