How To Delete Empty Rows In Google Sheet

How to delete empty rows in google sheet

While working with Google Sheets, you may end up with a lot of empty cells and rows within your spreadsheet. This could be a result of your data having empty rows in it, or maybe you have deleted a few rows and ended up with these. If there are only a few empty rows, then you can easily delete it manually, but if there are tens and hundreds of these scattered all over the dataset, the manual process will be time-consuming.
