Hi I am new to VBA and beyond frustrated,


I have list A in a workbook A in Sheet A. And I have a list B in wookbook A in sheet B.

I need to run VBA so that It opens up a separate workbook X (only has 1 sheet), looks through the list in list A and finds the corresponding characters from list A in the workbook X then deletes the row it is found in.

And then again for List B, It is going to open a separate wookbook Y (only has 1 sheet), looks through list in List B and finds the corresponding character from list B in the workbook Y then deletes the row it is found in.

I have gotten this far but for whatever reason I keep getting an error message:

Sub Remover()


Dim Uid As Long, Lid As Long, U As Range, L As Range

Dim Uwbk As Workbook, Lwbk As Workbook
Dim Ws As Worksheet, Uws As Worksheet, Lws As Worksheet, UxWs As Worksheet, LxWs As Worksheet

Set Uws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("List A")
Set Lws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("List B")
Set Uwbk = Workbooks.Open("WorkbookX.csv")
Set Lwbk = Workbooks.Open("WorkbookY.csv")
Set UxWs = Uwbk.Worksheets("Sheet 1")
Set LxWs = Lwbk.Worksheets("Sheet 1")


For Uid = UxWs.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row To 2 Step -1
Set U = Uws.Columns("A").Find(UxWs.Cells(i, 1).Value)
If Not U Is Nothing Then Rows(i).Delete
Next

For Lid = LxWs.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row To 2 Step -1
Set L = Lws.Columns("A").Find(LxWs.Cells(i, 1).Value)
If Not L Is Nothing Then Rows(i).Delete
Next


End Sub

This doesn't work.
Can someone please help me out here?

Thank you,
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as currency
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+4 to format cells as currency. (Shift 4 is the $ sign).
Just an FYI, where I say workbookx.csv or workbooky.csv there is actual directory that would open the file.
