Default Inserting cells between cells with text

I have over 300 questions and I need to insert a row after every question.
Is there a way to do this at one time without having to manually insert?

Default Inserting cells between cells with text

WORK ON A COPY OF YOUR DATA

Insert a column next to your questions

Next to the first question enter a 1, then move down one cell and enter a 3

Select the two cells, then double-click on the small black square at the
bottom right of the cell containing the 3. You should end up with the
questions all numbered from 1 to 600+.

Immediately below the last number enter a 2 and in the cell below that enter
a 4.

Select the 2 cells and this time DRAG the little black square down until you
reach 1 number higher than the highest of the first set of numbers

Now select the 1 at the top of the column and DataSort

You'll end up with a blank row between each of the questions

That worked perfectly. Strange way of doing it but oh my goodness it worked.
Thank you so very much.

I guess you answered your own question, now the problem is of course if you
don't know that you did post to this group <bg
