    The code offered by RobDog888 as follows

    Vb code:
    Rows("4:4").select
    Selection.Delete Shift:=x1Up

    desn't work.Gives error : x1Up variable not defined. Furthermore, I need to delete a row generated inside a code. For example : delete row n ( not a number) from Sheet.application.worksheets("any name"). Help!! Thank you

    Um you haven't specified whether you are running in excel or Vb...

    Either way, assuming you have a reference to the sheet used (deletes the fourth row):
    VB Code:
    1. sht.rows(4).delete
