    Rectangles, 1000's of them in spreadsheet.

    For some reason one of my excel spreadsheets was sitting at 5Mb, it contained 4 tabs with a little data in each and a logo on top. I deleted the logo off each tab but still 5Mb. I then stumbled across a small rectangle on one of the tabs so I deleted it, then I found another one. Its description at the top left was rectangle 4133, so I typed in Rectangle 2000 and one appeared. I dont know how they got there but there are a lot of them.

    Can anyone devise a macro to delete all rectangles?

    Hope you can help

    Good morning okanem

    Run the macro below. This will select them all, so you can see where they all are. Then just press "Delete".

    If you are comfortable using the VBE you could run just the single line from the immediate window (press Ctrl + g).
