How to make a code dynamic
Hi Guys. i have a code which is not dynamic. it selects column D (column D header is "Weight" )and perform the function. I wanted to know how can i change my code to dynamic i.e select the column with header "Weight" instead of just selection column D as per the below code
Sub deleteblankandzerorow()
Range("D:D").Select
For Each cell In Range("D1:D100")
If ActiveCell = "0" Then
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Delete
ElseIf ActiveCell = "" Then
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Delete
Else
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
End If
Next cell
End Sub

RE: How to make a code dynamic
Hi Sanjhali,
Thank you for the forum question.
The first option below if you do not know which row and the second option if you know which row, you have the header Weight.
cells.Find("Weight").EntireColumn.Select
Rows(1).Find("weight").EntireColumn.Select
Kind regards

RE: How to make a code dynamic
Hi Jens. thank you. this was super helpful and it worked.
Just one more question related to this please.
If i use for each cell in selection - this is selecting the entire column and the code is running on the entire column which is never ending loop.
How can i just make it run till the last cell which has value in that particular column ("Weight").

RE: How to make a code dynamic
Hi Sanjhali,
I will need to understand something about your data set.
If there is a blank cell in the column where the header is Weight, does it mean that the whole row is blank or only the cell?
Kind regards
