get rid of extra rows
 
I have this nice spreadsheet, but somehow additional rows were created at the
bottom, and I can't get rid of them by "deleting", backspace, editing and
deleting the formatting in those rows. Suggestions?

You can't change the number of rows in an XL sheet (65536 pre-XL07, over
a million in XL07). You could hide them instead (Format/Row/Hide).

See if this helps -- use the macro.

Use the macro solution. The basis of deletions is all columns without content, and all rows without content.

If that doesn't work, because you do actually have spaces in cells, see
