do until

[enfantter]

Im erasing some lines in a sheet based on a condition wich is put in a textbox.

Several line should be erased since they have the same name. I doing something like this,

for i...
if ..
end if
next i

and im trying to make it run until it can find that the condition is true anywhere. This is where i stumble.

do
for i...
if ..
end if
next i
loop until ????

does anybody know the solution??!

Please tell me if this post i lacking info..

You already have the solution in general terms, and we can't be any more specific than what you have without knowing more detail!

Ok, here is the actual code:
[VBA]
Private Sub fjern_click()
Do
For i = 0 To 500
If Cells(i + 9, 1).Value = Sletopg.Text Then
Rows(i + 9).Select
Selection.delete Shift:=xlUp

End If
Next i
Loop until

End Sub[/VBA]

specifically the problem is what to put after the until ...

You still haven't said what the condition actually is!

PS If you are going to delete rows, you should loop backwards - i.e. use:
For i = 500 to 0 Step -1

thnx
the condition to stop the loop is when there is not such Cells(i + 9, 1).Value that equals Sletopg.Text anymore

Are all the cells where Cells(i + 9, 1).Value = Sletopg.Text simultaneous or are there likely to be cells where the condition is not met inbetween cells that contain sletopg.text?

You could possible do a count of the number of times sletopg.text appears in the range and then count down from this value everytime a row is deleted and then exit the for loop when count = 0.

Private Sub fjern_click() 
count = WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range(Cells(9, 1), Cells(509, 1)), sletopg.text)
       For i = 500 To 0 Step -1 
           If Cells(i + 9, 1).Value = Sletopg.Text Then 
               Rows(i + 9).Select 
               Selection.delete Shift:=xlUp 
               count = count - 1
           End If
           If count = 0 then Exit For 
       Next i 
End Sub 

I don't think a do until loop round the outside wouldn't stop the for next loop exectuing to completion

Without a loop
[VBA]
Option Explicit
Sub DelRows()
Dim r As Range, FC As Range
Set FC = Cells(8, 1)
Set r = Range(FC, Cells(509, 1))
r.AutoFilter 1, Sletopg.Text
Set r = Range(Cells(9, 1), Cells(509, 1)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
r.EntireRow.Delete
FC.AutoFilter
End Sub
