Pasting values and not hidden rows/columns

when pasting values into a new spreadsheet how can I make it not paste hidden rows

RE: pasting values and not hidden rows/columns

Hi Julie

Thank you for your question - give this a try and see if it produces the results you are looking for.

First highlight your data
On the Home Ribbon click Find and Select

(it's in the Editing group - you could always right click on it and add it to the Quick Access Toolbar if this is something you will be doing a lot)

Click Go to and choose Special
Click on Visible cells only and then OK

Now copy your selection (Ctrl + C)

When you paste your data into a new sheet you will find it only includes visible items.

I hope this helps - let me know how you get on.


Kind regards,
Andrew

Excel tip:

Move data worksheet to worksheet

To move data from one worksheet to another, highlight the data.

Select and hold down the ALT key and position the mouse on the border of the selection until the mouse pointer displays four-headed arrows.

Drag the selection down to the destination worksheet tab.

When the arrow touches the tab, Excel switches to the desired worksheet. Now drag the selection to the correct position. Let go of the mouse and then the ALT key.

To copy data from one worksheet to another, select and hold down the CTRL+ALT keystroke combination and perform the steps above.
