Default Selecting rows with keyboard

Scott,

Shift - Spacebar will select the row. Shift - Down will select additional rows. Ctrl -
minus will delete the row(s). That's a true delete, which will shift rows up. Or use
Delete to clear the row.

I do most my excel work without my mouse however I cannot seem to find a way
to select rows and delete them without using it. I can select the contents of
the entire row but cannot delete the row itself. I know it sounds lazy but it
would save time. Any suggestions would be appreciated.


Thanks for that Earl. I didn't know about the Ctrl + - shortcut.
