Hello


Will this command delete empty cells in that range?


Range("A1:A10").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).Rows.Delete Shift:=xlShiftUp

Did you try it?

One of the best ways of learning VBA is through trial and error. So don't be afraid to try some things out for yourself.
For a question like this, by testing it you will be able to see pretty easily and pretty definitely whether it works or not.

It seems to work, although it left one cell undeleted.

However, I need it to work for cells that don't have values but may have formulas. Any idea? I checked the manual and it doesn't seem to have a term for it.

Then it is probably not really blank; it probably has a formula or a space or something (a single space is NOT the same as blank/empty).

If you want to delete cells that have formulas that are returning nothing, then see here: https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel...lete-blank-rows-formula-but-has-no-value.html

Another option would be to convert the formulas to hard-coded values, if you are able to do that. Then the cells would truly be blank and the first method would work.
