Give this a try... Select the range. Hit F5 (or Ctrl+G or Edit -> goto).
Select Constants or Formulas (depending on the nature of what you are
copying). Only the populated cells should now be selected (assuming you do
not have formulas returning blanks). Hit Ctrl+C to copy and then paste the
cells in thir destination.

Skip Blanks only prevents copied blank cells from overwriting existing data.

Not meant for deleting the blank cells when copying.

See Jim's reply for workarounds.

Why do you have the blank cells in the first place?

Maybe you could get rid of them at source?
