Delete blank columns.
Have you tried using Data | Filter | AutoFilter
This lets you select varies values. Or try Edit | GoTo | Special and specify blank cells Not clear what you want to happen to B entries. best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "John" wrote in message ... how to (forumla or macro) delete only the empty columns in A:A, but if any text in A10 or A18 not empty then need to keep it, after the empty box deleted the column B need to move to A |

John
A:A is one column so you can't delete empty columns in a column. What exactly do you want to do? Delete blank rows in column A? How does column B fit into this?

Delete blank columns.
Select the B entries; copy
Move to A1 and use Paste If you turn on Macro Record (Tools | Macros | Record Macro) before you do this, then you will make a macro that will do it for you next time. best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "John" wrote in message ...

Delete blank columns.
Insert a new A column (we will get rid of it later)
Enter 1,2,3 in A1, A2, A3; select these and pull down to last row giving 1,2,3,4,5.... 999 or whatever is last row) Sort all the data (A1:B999 or whatever is last row) by column B (the old column A) Now all blanks are at the top Do the Cut and Paste only on the row with blank in B Sort again by column A to restore old order Delete Column A All of this can be recorded in a macro best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "John" wrote in message ...
