Public Sub DeleteEmptyRows()
Dim lRow As Long

For lRow = 2400 To 800 Step -1
If Cells(lRow, 1).Value = "" Then
Cells(lRow, 1).EntireRow.Delete
Exit For
End If
Next lRow
End Sub

Cheers,

I can't make the formula work.

This is how my worksheet looks like and lets say I name the range as SAMPLE.

A B C D
1 J 01/20/05 123
2 J 01/20/05 123
3 01/20/05 123
.. J 0122 1223
..
..
500 J


I want to delete the rows without J's in column A. Also I need the formula
to start looking in Row 1.

Thanks for your help.

You originally said for rows 800 to 2400, now you are saying starting at 1.

Try this

iLastRow = Cells(Rows.Count,"B").End(xlUp).Row
Range("A1:A" & iLastRow).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireRow.Delete
