VB Question

I need to loop the code below to find all instances within a spreadsheet.

Can anyone help me with this?

Sub cleanup()
On Error GoTo Err

lr = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row + 1
'MsgBox lr
r1 = Cells.Find(What:="use start", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Row
'MsgBox r1
r2 = Cells(r1, 1).End(xlDown).Row + 1
'MsgBox r2
Rows(r2).Resize(lr - r2).Delete
r3 = Cells.Find(What:="Agent:", After:=Cells(r1 - 1, 1), LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Row + 2
'MsgBox r3
Rows(r3).Resize(r1 - r3).Delete
Rows(1).Resize(r3 - 4).Delete
Err:
End Sub

In the below line when lr and r2 becomes same it returns an error.

Rows(r2).Resize(lr - r2).Delete

Instead of placing Msgbox between the code; please debug using function key
F8 to understand where it is going wrong..

Well I have a spreadsheet with around 10k rows. Within the data I need to
find any rows that have the text "Use Start" and if found, also find rows
immediately above it that have the words "Mgr.", and "Agent" in them. Then I
need to find rows immediately below the found text that include the words
"Sun1", "Mon1". "Tue1",...."Sat1".

Any thoughts on how to best write this?

Where would the text appear? Is it just one single string? Need a bit more
process. If you find Use Start, is it all instances of Mgr and Agent?

Don't forget to put Application.ScreenUpdating = False and
Application.DisplayAlerts = False at the start of the script (and set them
back to True at the end). This will make it run much faster with lots of
data.
