Hi,

I'm trying to make the following code to search for the text "Total form column B starting from row 17 of the sheet and delete the whole row when the sheet deactivates.

Here the code I'm trying to use. but each time I deactivate the sheet I'm getting error message.

any help to avoid this would be kindly appreciated. My column datas are from column C to column T.
Code:

Excel Facts

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.
Try

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
With Me
    Last = .Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
    For I = Last To 1 Step -1
        If .Cells(I, "D").Value = "Total" Then .Rows(I).Delete
    Next I
End With
End Sub

I'm getting compile error message by highlighting the "Last ="

of the code.

What may be the reason for this?

It works for me. Maybe you need to define your variables

Rich (BB code):
Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
Dim Last As Long, I As Long
With Me
    Last = .Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
    For I = Last To 1 Step -1
        If .Cells(I, "D").Value = "Total" Then .Rows(I).Delete
    Next I
End With
End Sub
