RE: Inserting multiple lines

Thanks for this Rajeev but I think you misunderstood my question.
I was asking how to insert multiple rows as opposed to inserting 1 extra row.

RE: Inserting multiple lines

OOPs!! Sorry Sandra

I thought you meant how can you have multiple lines in a single cell. I'm sorry for the confusion!

The answer to your question is that you can select multiple rows and when you right-click and choose insert it will insert same no. of rows that you selected. or you can choose Insert > Rows from the Menu bar!

Please bear in mind that the new row gets inserted at the top of the row that you select so if you selct five rows the new five rows will be inserted on top of the fist row that you select.

The short cut yet to insert rows or columns is CTRL + SHIFT+ +
and to delete rows and columns is CTRL + -


I hope this answers your question!

Please mark this question as resolved if you feel that is what you were after!!

Kindest Regards

Excel tip:

How to select certain data in an Excel 2010 workbook

If you want to select the correct data set in a page full of data, the most accurate and efficient way of doing this is to use the ''Shift and Click'' technique.

For example: If you want to select all data in cells A2 to E10, then click on cell A2, hold down the Shift key and click on cell E10 and all the data you want to see is highlighted.

Keep holding down the Shift key and you can move from cell E10 to any other cell in the spreadsheet.
