easy way to delete all rows with no text in them?
I just took on a client who sends me a multipage spreadsheet weekly with movie times for his 10 theatres. My guess is he just deletes the information from the previous weeks row and adds a new row. His sheet really only needs about 16 columns and maybe 20 rows. The sheets he sends have upwards of 1500 rows and columns. Many of the rows are in between the actual text rows as well. I convert this to a webpage and post to his site. Problem is the sheets are so large they take forever to clean up (in GoLive) and much too long to do by hand. Is there an easy way to delete all rows with no text in them? thank you in advance for any help. -- george edgar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ george edgar's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=34396 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=541759 |

hi! sort on any one of the Column.. goto the last row where your data ends... select the remaining rows & delete them.... now save the workbook using SHIFT+F12.! -via135 george edgar Wrote: I just took on a client who sends me a multipage spreadsheet weekly with movie times for his 10 theatres.

great... what about the 100's of rows that are "in between" the other rows of useful content? On the spreadsheet they are barely visible, but, once converted to html, you can see there are 60-100 lines in between some of the rows. thanks -- george edgar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ george edgar's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=34396 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=541759 |
