[HP4GU-FAQ] Re: Is Anyone Allergic To Green? Houses? and Black Paint

Eloise pops into the office to pick up instructions, only to find Dicey, an 
e-mail in her hand and despair written on her face,

Err...Dicey?....Look, I'm really, really sorry about this but that's kind of 
the point.
I know what makes sense to *me*, but since I'm not actually in Excel and have 
never used it (and anyway, even in MS Works, I only understand how to put 
data *in*, not how to play with the results), I can't be sure that I what 
makes sense to me is the right thing. I just need a straight answer. From 
someone clever....and understanding.... and patient... and sympathetic to the 
technically challenged and generally wonderful.....and...and...Do you know, 
we had to write an essay at Canon College about our hero, Dicey, and *I* 
wrote about *you*?

See, we've been told that we have to delete the blacked-out rows before 
submitting the final document.

Debbie says that if I black out lines it's going to take ages to delete them.
I tried that holding Ctrl trick, but I don't seem to be able to select 
multiple rows. 

Can't I just leave the blacked-out rows in the final document, as long as the 
row numbers remain in an unbroken sequence, as they do in mine?
That's all I want to know.

I know this sounds really stupid, but hey, what's new?

About to refer to herself as a Luddite, but recalling that the *real* 
Luddites actually *objected* to new technology and went round smashing it up, 
rather than struugling to come to terms with it.
