does anyone know what can i do with this code. im trying to delete just some columns from the row but i get a error message
Thanks!
the code that i have works but what i want to do is delete part of the row from A to J. i want to do this because when i delete the row the formulas that i have in cells K to M gets delete and i need to drag my formula down every time the whole row is delete that is why i want to know if there is a way to just delete cells A to J. right now i want to copy the whole row to another sheet which it does but i just dont want to delete part of the row where the formulas are.
This is my code
Dim UsdRws As Long
Dim i As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
UsdRws = Range(“A1”).CurrentRegion.Rows.Count
For i = UsdRws To 2 Step -1
If Range(“M” & i).Value Like “Complete” Then
Rows(i).Copy Sheets(“Complete”).Range(“A” & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1)
Rows(i).Delete
End If
Next i
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
