problem deleting 8 rows using macro

[H28Sailor]

Hi

I have a simple spreadsheet with 4 rows per day for each day of the week - Monday through Sunday
I wish to delete all Saturday and Sunday rows (8 at a time)

I tried creating a macro but it doesn't produce the correct result

I don't wish to resort the rows to delete Saturday and Sundays

My macro basically starts on the first row of a Monday, step down to the first row of a Saturday, highlight the next 8 cells (left-hand column) and delete 8 rows

Start from the bottom and work your way up. So, from the bottom, work up to the last FRIDAY. Offset one row and resize the range to be 8 rows and delete them. Then work up to the next previous FRIDAY. Offset one row and resize the range to be 8 rows and delete them. And repeat until finished.

If you start at the top, deleting rows will cause you to "jump over" rows that should be deleted.

I must be doing something wrong as I get the same incorrect result

Suggest that you post a sample workbook.

Just for the record, the method I was suggesting (with one small tweak):

I realised that I needed to check if it was the FIRST Friday before the weekend, not just any Friday
