Deleting Empty Rows
 

Hi everyone,

I have about 100 text files containing large amount of data.

when I paste it into excel 2007 it is like below;

Column A


DATA~~~~~~~

BLANK ROWWWWWWWWW

DATA~~~~~~~~~~

BLANK ROWWWWWWWWW
..
..
..
..


it goes on and on upto about few hundred thousand rows.

How do I use fast and effective macro to delete empty rows entirely in
column A:A?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Regards,


James

Try select column A and F5SpecialBlanksOK

EditDeleteEntire Row

Record a macro whilst doing.

It says "Selection is too large"

Deleting Empty Rows
 

Is that the complete message?

I assumed Excel 2007 would be similar to Excel 2003 and earlier.

I guess with a "few hiundred thousand rows" Excel gets over-taxed?

I don't use 2007 so cannot test.
