How to insert blank lines alternately in Excel using Sort
Step 1:
Open the Excel file and need to add alternating white lines in the content. First, add to the last column of the data table the serial number from 1 to the end and repeat on the lines below that do not have data.
To operate faster, enter number 1 then press and hold Ctrl then drag the mouse to the right corner and drag it down below.
Step 2:
Next, at the serial number line added below, right-click and select Sort and choose Custom Sort.
Step 3:
A small window interface appears Sort Warning. We continue to click the button Sort right below. Noteselect Expand the selection.
Step 4:
In the interface Sort new, Uncheck My data has header.
Next part Sort by we choose Column E. Order will be placed Smallest to Largest from smallest to largest. Then press OK.
The final result will appear an additional white line in the Excel data table content as shown below. We just need to delete the serial number in column E and we're done.
Noteif you want to add 2 or 3 blank lines to the table, you also need to create a number from 1 to the line you want to insert, then if you want to insert 2 or 3 lines, repeat the corresponding number.
As shown below, I will create 2 additional alternating white lines in the table, creating 2 more columns from 1 to 3.
Then, perform the same steps as above and get the results as shown below.
So you can add one or two arbitrary blank lines to the data table. The way to do it when inserting a blank line or more than 2 blank lines in Excel is only different from adding a sequential number column from 1 to the line to be inserted.
