When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Try:-
Code:
[COLOR="Navy"]Sub[/COLOR] MG16Nov56
[COLOR="Navy"]Dim[/COLOR] rng [COLOR="Navy"]As[/COLOR] Range
[COLOR="Navy"]Set[/COLOR] rng = Range("A:c").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks)
rng.Delete shift:=xlUp
[COLOR="Navy"]End[/COLOR] [COLOR="Navy"]Sub[/COLOR]
