Insert Cells

The time will come when you need to squeeze more stuff into a section of Excel worksheets already occupied by other cell entries. Inserting a new cell range is a snap.

To insert a cell range, follow these steps:

1. Select the cells (both occupied and unoccupied) where you want the new cells to appear.
   
2. Right-click the selection and choose Insert from the shortcut menu.
   
  OR
   
  Choose Insert ► Cells from the menu bar, to bring up the Insert dialog box.

3. You have a choice of radio buttons to select from. Choose either Shift Cells Right or Shift Cells Down.
   
4. Click OK.


Delete Cells

You may just have inserted a few too many cells on your Excel worksheets than you wished, so deleting them is even an easier task than inserting them.

To delete a cell range, follow these steps:

1. Select the range of cells that you want to delete.
   
2. Right-click the selection and choose Delete from the shortcut menu.
   
  OR
   
  Choose Edit ► Delete from the menu bar, to bring up the Delete dialog box.
