 Excel: A fast way to delete a
cell—not the contents of a cell but the cell itself: Highlight
the cell and press Ctrl+- (minus sign). The cell will
disappear, and you will be offered options on which adjacent
cells will shift to fill the empty space.

. Because of the volume of mail, we regret that we cannot individually answer submitted questions. However, if a reader’s question has broad interest, we will answer it in a forthcoming Technology Q&A column. On occasion you may find that you cannot implement a function I describe in this column. More often than not it’s because not all functions work in every operating system or application. I try to test everything in the 2000 and XP editions of Windows and Office. It’s virtually impossible to test them in all editions and it’s equally difficult to find out which editions are incompatible with a function. I apologize for the inconvenience. |
