newbie needs help

  Asked By: Adelina    Date: Nov 15    Category: MS Office    Views: 576
  

Here is the actual problem I'm trying to solve not the best I know but
also a learning tool in finding out what is in cells etc, with code.
.I'm actually trying to delete rows I don't want. Here is a sample of
report that is imported. It contains 3 columns of which column A & B are
the ones with data Want it to only keep name and cell with 23 blanks
before the Reg: which are the hours of pay. Name always comes after
blank Row. The header page info needs to be deleted also. I think a 3
condition Do While loop will do it. I need to put in something near the
bottom of the report in one of the blank rows to stop the Do While loop.
First two names in example is what report should end up like. What is
crazy the code I'm also posting is giving me errors in debug on lines
that work in another spreadsheet to hide rows. More comments after this
example.

CODE I WAS TRYING TO MODIFY, first macro is one I was trying to make
work. LoopRange 3() after is the one that works in another spreadsheet
but bombs in this one. May be something to do with what cell I'm in.
Cellpointer is in column A and it stops on

Set currCell = ActiveSheet.Cells(x, 0) (says Application-defined or
Object defined error).



Sub Deleterows()

'Start at the currently selected cell

Dim x As Integer

Dim curr

Dim dontdo$

dontdo = -123

x = ActiveCell.Row

ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("wk1").Select

Do While ActiveCell(x, 0).Value <> dontdo

curr = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0)

'Test for blank

If Cells(x, 0).Value = "" Then

Selection.Cells(1, 1).Select

Selection.EntireRow.Delete

x = x + 1

Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select

ElseIf Cells(x, 0).Value = "Some Hotel" Then

Selection.Cells(1, 1).Select

Selection.EntireRow.Delete

x = x + 1

Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select

Else

If Cells.Text.Left(27) = " Reg:"
Then



x = x + 1

Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select

Else

Selection.Cells(1, 1).Select

Selection.EntireRow.Delete

End If

End If



curr = ActiveSheet.Cells(x, 0)



Loop



End Sub



Sub LoopRange3()



'Start at the currently selected cell

Dim x As Integer, currCell As Range



x = ActiveCell.Row



Set currCell = ActiveSheet.Cells(x, 0)


Do While Cells(x, 0).Value <> ""

'Test for zero

If Cells(x, 0).Value = 0 And Cells(x, 9).Value = 0 Then

Selection.Cells(1, 1).Select

Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = True

x = x + 1

Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select



Else



x = x + 1

Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select



End If

Set currCell = ActiveSheet.Cells(x, 6)



Loop

End Sub
