cut a line-move to another sheet
Is there a way to cut a line and insert the line on another sheet without
leaving the blank line on the sheet that you cut the line from? All in two steps--I know that I could go back and delete the blank line but wondered if I could do it in only two steps Sherry |

This will empty the cells and leave the row in place. What you should do is highlight the ROW by clicking on the row number at the left side of the window, and then CUT. This will copy the content to the clipboard and remove the row from the source sheet. When you go to the destination sheet, you want to highlight the row where you want to place the data and then INSERT CUT CELLS or INSERT ROW (depending on version). This will push the lower rows down to make room for the new row and enter the cut data into the empty cells. TRY THIS ON A TEST SPREADSHEET BEFORE YOU DO IT WITH LIVE DATA. If you've never done these things before, they can seem tricky. So make up some stuff you can experiment with until you are comfortable doing this. B+ HALinNY |

Which version of Excel removes the row when row is cut and pasted elsewhere? None that I have ever used from 5.0 through 11 will delete a cut row without the going-back-and-deleting step.

My apologies for not testing what I described before offering it. B+ HALinNY |

so, are you both thinking there is no way to do this between sheets?

Not without some sort of VBA code/macro.
Sub cutanddelete() With ActiveSheet ActiveCell.EntireRow.cut Destination:= _ Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1") ActiveCell.EntireRow.Delete End With End Sub Gord On Fri, 1 Dec 2006 11:14:01 -0800, shertone wrote: so, are you both thinking there is no way to do this between sheets?
