How do I insert alternating blank rows in a list of data?
 
From a post of mine very recently
Sub addrows()
For i = Cells(Rows.Count, "a").End(xlUp).Row To 2 Step -1
Rows(i).Insert
Next
End Sub

I can write up...if not....how do I copy and paste this.

Thank you!

Do you really need the extra rows?

If for appearance only, select all the rows and double their height through
FormatRowHeight or drag the bottom selected row to a size you like.

OR you could use a macro if you so choose.

Sub InsertRows()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim numRows As Integer
Dim r As Long
numRows = 1
For r = 2500 To 1 Step -1
'change the 2500 to suit your range
ActiveSheet.Rows(r + 1).Resize(numRows).EntireRow.Insert
Next r
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

You can do it without a macro.

Here is a suggestion from Bill Kuunders.

Use a new column
put in the top part of that column a number series 1 3 5 7 9 etc till all
lines with existing data have a number
and in the bottom part of that column 2 4 6 8 etc
then select the whole range and sort by this new column
delete the column after.

This is a macro. Just copy/paste into a modulechange "a" to suit your
columnSAVE fire from alt f8 or assign to a button/shape.
