Default Delete row if blank in a column

I was wondering what function I should use if one of the columns has a blank
in it.
In this case I want to get rid of the Ringo row (Go Figure).

A B C
Paul Yes
Ringo

John

George

Thanks as always. You have saved my neck many times!

Eventhough I surely have blanks, it is saying "No Cells Found"...

Then the cells are not blank.

Perhaps they look blank due to a formula that returns "" if no data?

Or you have a space or spaces in the cells that look blank?

Are there formulas?

If not, in a helper column enter =LEN(C1)

Copy down.

What results do you get for the "surely blank" cells.
