Default Eliminating blanks

Hi,

1. Formulas don't take action in the spreadsheet, they only return results!

2. Sort your data based on colums A and B. Blanks go to the bottom.

3. You could write code to remove the blank rows but #2 is simplier.

Yes,

I am looking for a formula that could do it on auto actually. I have tried
several formulas but this one is a bit past me.

Do you know is it possible with a formula?
Thanks

Hi,

Is there a function i could use please to reduce the size of a list. I have
a list of names in col A, with values in B etc, in between certain cells may
be a range of blank cells.

So if i start with a list such as

Bill 2
(blank)
Fred 3
Dave 1
(blank)
(blank)
Wilma 3

The output I would like to generate is

Bill 2
Fred 3
Dave 1
Wilma 3

Thanks
