Excel adding blank rows when sorting
I have a list of customers our company sends birthday cards when they
come around. I am importing the list from Access to Excel and then using Sort to put them in order of month and then day, both descending so that I can delete everything but the month that I need. Excel puts all the customers with blank birthdate fields at the top just as it did before so I can delete them, but now below those fields it has blank rows from 2700-4139 before it begins with the January birthdays and continues on as normal. Does anyone know why this might be happening? |

Wouldn't it be a lot easier to set up your Access query to extract only the
records you want? " wrote: I have a list of customers our company sends birthday cards when they come around.

Well, of course it would! Sometimes I just do what I'm told and don't
think of ways I can improve things that were made before I got here. Thanks a bunch :) kassie wrote: Wouldn't it be a lot easier to set up your Access query to extract only the records you want?
