Delete empty rows in a worksheet

S

Scott

I've imported some data from a text file that
unfortunately was double-spaced. This has created empty
rows in my spreadsheet, which are far too numerous to
delete manually. I'm hoping someone can help me.

Hi Scott,

If you don't mind sorting your data, then it's pretty easy:

1) Select all cells
2) Select Data | Sort...

That will cause all non-empty cells to "float" to the top.
