    Adding control box to VBA

    I'd like to make this macro interactive by adding a box to select column and text with wildcards
    Currently I change the "F" and the "*:*" in the code below and then run the macro. But, I'd like to make it interactive so others with no experience with vba can do it.

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Jim

    rows in macro that are affected
    With .Cells(Lrow,"F") ‘insert column
    If Not IsError(.Value) Then
    If .Value Like "*:*" Then .E. . . .

    Hi Jim,

    How about using an InputBox and ask what column Letter to look in for stuff to delete? Save this variable and use in place of your "F" in your code.
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.

    Re: Adding control box to VBA

    Thanks for the response Marvin
    I'm not great with VBA - I try to find working code to our applications and then string codes together. I've not created an Input box for this type of application. Could you help me out with the how.
    Input Column & Input text to look for (if text found delete row)

    Thanks again

    Re: Adding control box to VBA

    Thanks Marvin - this part works great but need input box to declare this line
    If .Value Like "*:*" Then .EntireRow.Delete

    The *:* could be anything desired - so how could I incorporate that query?
