Troubleshooter of Error: Deleting cells in excel with vba

Deleting cells in excel with vba

I have received an excel workbook with a sheet that requires me to delete cells within the rows.
For example, I receve a spredsheet that looks like
Col:   a   b     c     d     e      f
          s                  g    r       =function

Result:
Col: a    b     c     d     e       f
          s    g     r                     =Funcion

The rows I have received are of variable content BUT I know I want to continue to delete blank cells within a row until I detect the cell with a fuction(column f).
This is my problem, How do I tell within VBA that the value of a cell is a function.
It appears to me that the value in the cell is the Result of the function.
The results vary so i would like the stopping criteria within a row to be the presence of a function.
Thak you
Greg

Assuming rng points to the cell you want to check for existence of a formula use
If rng.HasFormula = FalseThen
'code to delete cell
End if

Try the macro below
You will have to add a loop for i to process all rows.
This is only for row 1
Sub deleteCell()
'Specify row to test
i = 1
'Specify last column to check
lastcol = 10
For j = lastcol To 1 Step -1
If Cells(i, j).HasFormula = FalseThen
Cells(i, j).Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
End If
Next j

End Sub

Manually editing the Windows registry

Manually editing the Windows registry to remove invalid MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION keys is not recommended unless you are PC service professional. Incorrectly editing your registry can stop your PC from functioning and create irreversible damage to your operating system. In fact, one misplaced comma can prevent your PC from booting entirely!

Caution: Unless you an advanced PC user, we DO NOT recommend editing the Windows registry manually. Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall Windows. We do not guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

To manually repair your Windows registry, first you need to create a backup by exporting a portion of the registry related to MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION (eg. Windows Operating System):

Click the Start button.
Type "command" in the search box... DO NOT hit ENTER yet!
While holding CTRL-Shift on your keyboard, hit ENTER.
You will be prompted with a permission dialog box.
Click Yes.
A black box will open with a blinking cursor.
Type "regedit" and hit ENTER.
In the Registry Editor, select the Error 0x9C-related key (eg. Windows Operating System) you want to back up.
From the File menu, choose Export.
In the Save In list, select the folder where you want to save the Windows Operating System backup key.
In the File Name box, type a name for your backup file, such as "Windows Operating System Backup".
In the Export Range box, be sure that "Selected branch" is selected.
Click Save.
The file is then saved with a .reg file extension.
You now have a backup of your MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION-related registry entry.
