    Select huge data and remove blanks - How

    I have 85k cells in a column in the below format.

    Q1: How to select all the 85k cells when there is a blank cell below each cell?

    Q2: How to remove blanks only? (not duplicates)

    Note: I know how to remove blanks. only problem is i am not able to select data in 85k cells where there is a blank cell bottom of each cell.

    Assumed your data in ranges A1 and down, put this in Cell C1 and copied down:

    =IF(ROW()-ROW($A$1:$A$30)+1>ROWS($A$1:$A$30)-COUNTBLANK($A$1:$A$30),"",INDIRECT(ADDRESS(SMALL((IF($A$1:$A$30<>"",ROW($A$1:$A$30),ROW()+ROWS($A$1:$A$30))),ROW()-ROW($A$1:$A$30)+1),COLUMN($A$1:$A$30),4)))

    or see the file

    Thanks for your time Azumi


    Actually, i did it in a different way.

    1. Highlighted the cells that are blank by conditional formatting

    2. Sorted ascending or descending and selected cells that has data simply by clicking shift+command+down arrow.

    Solved !!!!
