To the well I return...!

Here's the deal: an excel worksheet (Trial balance) is populated (approx.
3,000 rows) from a download and has 4 columns (first 3 are text and 4th is
numeric). The 1st column has values of 00, 01, 02, 03, etc. through 20. I
used the following formula to extract to seperate workbooks the rows needed
(i.e., 01 rows to spreadsheet Property A):

=IF(AND('P:\Common\Portfolio\OER\2006\[Trial balance.xls]12 31 06
TB'!$A1="01",'P:\Common\Portfolio\OER\2006\[Trial balance.xls]12 31 06
TB'!$D1<0),'P:\Common\Portfolio\OER\2006\[Trial balance.xls]12 31 06
TB'!A1,"")


I get what I need (about 150 rows). However, I also get almost 2,900
visibly blank lines. Therefore, I humbly seek help either after the
extraction of the rows based on the first column 2 digit number or should I
change directions while navigating through the above funtion?

Grazie....molti!
