    How to remove rows based on cell values?

    Hello all - I have the macro below where I recently added "
    Code:
    Criteria1:="= "
    so that I can remove any rows that do not start with DCQ or that are blank. The macro runs and deletes most of the rows where the cell is empty but it does not delete all of them. Please note that I added the LEN function to the workbook and found that some cells have 0 characters while others have 50. Any idea what I need to add to remove all rows that are blank with the addition of those that do not start with DCQ?



    Code:
    Sub Clean_Format()    Dim ws As Worksheet
        Dim rng As Range
        Dim lastRow As Long
    
    
        Set ws = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
    
    
        lastRow = ws.Range("M" & ws.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
    
    
        Set rng = ws.Range("M1:M" & lastRow)
    
    
        With rng
            .AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="<>DCQ*", Criteria1:="= "
            .Offset(1, 0).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).EntireRow.Delete
        End With
    
    
        ws.AutoFilterMode = False
    End Sub
    * Side question - if I want to format column A as Text and column DF as Time, where can I add that to the macro?

    I tested your code and as far as I can tell, it deleted all targeted rows. If you want to provide worksheet for analysis, follow instructions at bottom of my post.

    Use macro recorder to get formatting code.
