Check values in columns, allowing for not all columns being present - excel

Question

I'm trying to clean up raw data exported from an online database.
There can be up to five columns. If all cells in a row have a value of 0, I want to delete that row.
When the user exports the data, they can choose to exclude columns, and the columns can be in any order.
For example, if the data contains only two of the possible five columns, I want to check just those two for 0s.

Answer 1

Could do a a big loop looking at every row and seeing if all 5 columns in that row are blank
Sub test()
Dim sh As Worksheet
Set sh = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("sheetname")
Dim LastRow As Integer
LastRow = sh.UsedRange.Rows.Count - 1
For i = 1 To LastRow
If (sh.Cells(i, 1).Value = "" And sh.Cells(i, 2).Value = "" And sh.Cells(i, 3).Value = "" And _
sh.Cells(i, 4).Value = "" And sh.Cells(i, 5).Value = "") Then
sh.Cells(i, 1).EntireRow.Delete
i = i - 1
Dim newLastRow As Integer
newLastRow = sh.UsedRange.Rows.Count - 1
If i = newLastRow Then
Exit For
End If
End If
Next i
MsgBox ("Done")
End Sub

#kyle campbell, thank you for your input! It didn't quite get me there, but it did get my wheels turning. Here is the solution I came up with, if anyone's curious:
I set a variable to represent the column number for each of the 5 possible columns using Range.Find. If the Find came up with nothing, I set the variable to 49, since the maximum number of columns this report can have is 48.
Then I did a nested If to test if the value in each cell was either 0 or null (because if the column number is 49, there won't be any data there). If all Ifs were true, I deleted the row. I also added a counter and message box, just to make sure this worked.
Sub DeleteRows()
Dim O As Long
Dim E As Long
Dim H As Long
Dim B As Long
Dim P As Long
lRow = Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Rows.Count
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(OBLIGATIONS)") Is Nothing Then
O = 49
Else
O = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(OBLIGATIONS)").Column
End If
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(EXPENDITURES)") Is Nothing Then
E = 49
Else
E = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(EXPENDITURES)").Column
End If
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(HOURS)") Is Nothing Then
H = 49
Else
H = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(HOURS)").Column
End If
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(BUDGET_RESOURCES)") Is Nothing Then
B = 49
Else
B = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(BUDGET_RESOURCES)").Column
End If
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(PRIOR_YEAR_RECOVERY)") Is Nothing Then
P = 49
Else
P = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(PRIOR_YEAR_RECOVERY)").Column
End If
Dim j As Integer
j = 0
For i = lRow To 2 Step -1
If Cells(i, O) = 0 Or Cells(i, O) = "" Then
If Cells(i, E) = 0 Or Cells(i, E) = "" Then
If Cells(i, H) = 0 Or Cells(i, H) = "" Then
If Cells(i, B) = 0 Or Cells(i, B) = "" Then
If Cells(i, P) = 0 Or Cells(i, P) = "" Then
Rows(i).Delete
j = j + 1
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
Next i
MsgBox "Macro complete, " & j & " lines deleted."
End Sub
