Default search for a string

Try;

Sub DoIt()
Dim rRange As Range

On Error Resume Next
Set rRange = Range(Cells(1, 1). _
Cells.Find("Draft Documents", _
Cells(1, 1), xlFormulas, _
xlWhole, xlByRows, xlNext, False))
On Error GoTo 0

If Not rRange Is Nothing Then
rRange.EntireRow.Delete
Else
MsgBox "'Draft Documents' Not found"
End If

Set rRange = Cells.Find("*", _
Cells(1, 1), xlFormulas, _
xlPart, xlByRows, xlPrevious, False)

rRange.Offset(-2, 0).Range("A1:A2").EntireRow.Delete
End Sub

delete
all the rows above the row containing the string and then delete the last
two
rows in sheet1? Thank you
