View Full Version : deleting rows in word table if certain cells are empty or contain a specific value

I have this code (attached below) which will delete the rows in a word table if all the cell rows are empty.

However I have a table with eight columns, the first four of which will always contain text. The latter four contains data linked to an excel document.

The question is; how do I get the code to search through the latter four (data) columns and IF the columns are empty and/or contain a value (such as zero) THEN delete the row.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance



Sub DeleteBlankRowsAndTablesInATable()
Dim objCell As Cell
Dim nRowIndex As Integer, nRows As Integer, nColumns As Integer, nColumnIndex As Integer
Dim varCellEmpty As Boolean

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

If Selection.Information(wdWithInTable) = False Then
MsgBox ("Put cursor inside a table first!")
Exit Sub
Else
With Selection.Tables(1)
nRows = .Rows.Count
For nRowIndex = nRows To 1 Step -1
varCellEmpty = True
For Each objCell In .Rows(nRowIndex).Cells
If Len(objCell.Range.Text) > 2 Then
varCellEmpty = False
Exit For
End If
Next objCell
If varCellEmpty = True Then
.Rows(nRowIndex).Delete
End If
Next nRowIndex



End With
End If


Set objCell = Nothing


Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
