Gang, LR returns 0 Value... sure it's an easy fix. What am I doing wrong?

Code:
Sub freshList2()With Sheets("sL")


Dim LR As Long


LR = Range("A" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row


    For i = 1 To LR Step -1
        If Left(Range("A" & i).Value, 1) <> "1*" Then
            .Rows(i).EntireRow.Delete
        End If
    Next i




End With






End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Try using
Code:
LR = cells(rows.count,"A").end(xlup).row

The below works for me...

Code:
Sub freshList2()
    With Sheets("sL")

        Dim LR As Long, i As Long
        LR = .Range("A" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row


        For i = LR To 2 Step -1
            If Left(.Range("A" & i).Value, 1) <> 1 Then
                .Rows(i).Delete
            End If
        Next i

    End With

End Sub

Remove the dot in front of the Rows keyword (you do not have With statement for that dot to refer back to).

The OP has a With statement, it is just the board is displaying it bad and is on the Sub line.

I think the OP had it wrong in their statement
LR returns 0 Value
I think it is the i that was returning 0 because they had the LR and the i the wrong way around in
Code:
For i = 1 To LR Step -1
so it was doing a -1 step from 1 to 0.
