How do I delete data in worksheet, but not the associated form
Sorry, I just had a thought and my response isn't even up
yet.....but....could I "copy" just the formulas, then delete the data, then
"paste" the formulas back in. I'm not sure if that is an option - copying
just he formulas, but that would be great.
Thanks again.

Only different because I am assuming your data to remove was numeric only.
Otherwise.........follow Dave's instructions.

Select all cells then F5SpecialConstants. Uncheck all but "Numbers" and
OK your way out.
Touch nothing except the Delete key
Numbers gone. Formulas and text remain.
Note: you may have errors showing in formula cells which have no data to
source.

I too want to do this: delete the data in a worksheet (that I worked very
hard on) and use this worksheet with all the formulas in tact as a template.
I did as you said and it won't clear the data from the cells that have
formulas in them without clearing the formulas as well.
Thanks,

I bet that there are labels (titles/descriptions/etc) that you want to keep to.
Select the range to clean--don't include any of those labels to be kept.
Edit|Goto|Special
click Constants and OK
hit the delete key on the keyboard.
