copy only those rows whose string len is > 6 in b column cell values

is it possible to copy only those rows which has string length more than 6 characters and paste them to a new sheet? The task is I have to remove all the unwanted characters in the rows. the range is 2 to 4000 something like that

I was using looping and mid function to do that which i found on google because I found only looping solution to that on google, because I only need numbers in each cell of B column and remove all other character except &,/, ,,. Then after cleaning up all ce lls in B column I need to check the number of digits in each row of B column and if it contains more than 6 it should be copied to new sheet and it may contain blank cells too in between

 a       b           c 
6451    1234567   somevalue
4563    12345     somevalue
3245    123456789 somevalue
2345    1234      somevalu开发者_开发问答e

Now I have to copy the 1 and 3 rd row but not the other rows as length of string is less than 7. I have to check only the B column and copy the entire row if it has more than 6 digits

I think what your boss is trying to say (not very well, btw) about using variant arrays, etc. instead of worksheets is to keep it in VBA. Read in the data once and manipulate it within VBA instead of pasting and manipulating data on a worksheet to get the desired result. This of course extends to anything outside of making calls to Excel, not just variant arrays. Perhaps you are often looping through cells one by one and he is trying to say he'd prefer if you dumped a range into a variant array and worked on it inside of VBA instead.

Of course, the best method depends on the task on hand, in my opinion.

As for your row question, it's a little unclear what you're trying to do (try to be careful how you use the words 'row' 'cell' and 'column'). A row cannot have a 'string length' so I am assuming you mean cell. Please confirm.
