This is what I want the macro doing :

  • Find the last row with data for column A
  • Then, compare the value in that cell with the value in the cell just above
  • If the value is the same, delete the entire row of the highest cell
  • If the value is not the same, get to the next cell i column A and repeat until cell A3

Any help on that?

Thanks

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
How about
Code:
Sub DelCellsinLoop()

    Dim Cnt As Long
    
    For Cnt = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row To 4 Step -1
        If Range("A" & Cnt).Value = Range("A" & Cnt - 1).Value Then Rows(Cnt - 1).Delete
    Next Cnt
End Sub
