Conditional Hide function for Excel
In a selected worksheet, if cells in a selected row/column are empty the
program will automatically hide those column/rows that are not filled in, allowing spreadsheets that have been made with expected growth in mind to be more easily worked without having to unhide and hide every time you make an entry. Under this type of format, if you are in the cell that is for example above an autohide area, and you hit enter or down the cell that you will go to will be the one hidden rather than the next unhidden cell as with the typical hide command. Prefferably, you could also separate these two buttons - example, using enter to go to the next hidden cell and the down button to go to the next unhidden cell. I am an engineer and I do a lot of large multilinked spreadsheet work that is designed with future growth in mind and this type of command would realy save me a lot of time. |
Look at Data/Filter/Autofilter (Just select range of data in the one column
of data you wish to use, plus the cell above the data) I believe you can select <Blank and <Non-Blank as options. This may be what you are looking for "mr.woofies" wrote in message ...
