Default Compress a column


I have a column of numerical values and random empty or null value
cells. I want to compress the column so I only retain the numerical
values without losing their sequence. Ideally if there was a function
like "delete row" where you check for null value cells and delete the
appropriate row. Macros won't work because the column sequence changes
whenever worksheet is activated

Thank you

Try this:

Select the cells from top of the list to the bottom of the list
EditGo ToClick:Special CellsSelect:Blanks....Click [OK]

Default Compress a column

Set up autofilters and select (blanks) from the pull-down list on the
column. Then highlight all the displayed rows which have been filtered
(row indicator shows as blue) and Edit | Delete Row. Select (All) from
the pull-down filter list and you will have what you have asked for.

Hope this helps.

Pete
