First enter xxx where you want the loop to stop (below the last value: B7). Select the cell at the top of the column containing the values to be considered (B1)and run the macro. Sub proDelete() Range("B1").Select Do Until Selection.Value = "xxx" If Selection.Value = "" Then Selection.EntireRow.Delete Else Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select End If Loop Range("A1").Select End Sub If you have completed the free exercises "Free Basics", just copy/paste the macro above in the Visual Basic editor and run it. Exiting a Loop In the loop above if you want the loop to stop when it finds the value 99 you can add this line of code within the loop: If Selection.Value = 99 Then Exit Do

Exit allows you to get out of almost anything like: Exit Sub Exit For Exit Do
