    I can't copy non-sequentially.

    I have a column of email addresses. I would like to select from the column a group that are non-sequential. Excel appears to function correctly - I hold down the Ctrl and select the 12 I want, they highlight, however when I paste them into another document (not Excel), all the addresses in between are pasted as well and I end up with 60 addresses rather than the 12 I want. Is anyone able to tell me what I doing wrong or if I have an incorrect setting? Thanks.

    Hi and welcome
    some searching on the Net reveals this cannot be done without VBA.

    How about first pasting them somewhere else in Excel and then copying and pasting those into the application? That works on Excel 365.

    ChemistB's suggestion also works with Excel 2010

    You might also try selecting/hiding unwanted rows. Then ctrl+select the desired ROW, not the cell (one by one) I tried it with excel to notepad and it worked.
