Filtering out a long list making it Shorter and Faster!

[Miricleman]

HI

I have a long repetitive code i have manage to get to work for me. I was wondering if there is a way of shortening this code to make it work faster? i know there has got to be a way. I am just a novice muddling my way through code and cannot seem to work it out.

Thanks in advance!

What is that code supposed to do.
It looks like it just applies a bunch of filters and then removes them by .ShowAllData

The first thing I would do would be to see if there is a repeative pattern and you have quite a number where you use "Field:=5" for your autofiltering.

I would then put all these different criteria values in a column and name this as say "List1". I would the add some lines to the macro:

So this macro part will loop through all values in "List1" and set autofilter to the appropriate cell value.

i would combine the same fields into an array and filter all at once then delete

alternatively create a helper column to identify which rows require filter
then filter on helper and delete only those in one go

I would remove al those yelling exclamation marks and capitals in the threadtitle first.
