Delete item from list and remove the resulting blank cell

I need a macro that will look at a range of values (e.g. G3:G200) and delete the value that matches the value in cell G2. I then want the macro to delete the empty cell by shifting all cells in the range up one.

All this action needs to only happen in column G. I don't need any other data deleted.

TIA!!
 

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
Like this maybe
Code:
Sub delrows()
    For I = 200 To 3 Step -1
        If Cells(I, "G").Value = Cells(2, "G").Value Then
            With Cells(I, "G")
                .Select
                .Value = ""
                Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
            End With
        End If
    Next I
End Sub

Looks like it's going to work great.

What if I wanted to also delete the cell values in columns F & H (the ones right next to "G") and shift all three columns up. Everything else is the same meaning Io want to delete those three cells based on a match in G2 & the range G3:G200

Code:
Sub delrows()
    For I = 20 To 3 Step -1
        If Cells(I, "G").Value = Cells(1, "G").Value Then
            With Range(Cells(I, "F"), Cells(I, "H"))
                .Select
                .Value = ""
                Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
            End With
        End If
    Next I
End Sub

Possibly another option....

Code:
Sub Macro2()
    Dim X As Range
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    
    With Range("G1:G" & Range("G" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
        .AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=Range("G1").Value
        Set X = .Offset(1, -1).Resize(.Rows.Count - 1, 3).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
        ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode = False
        X.Delete
    End With
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
