    Importrange 2 different url- how to remove the blank cells between the spreadsheets Data

    I was able to importrange from two sheets but the problem is due to range mentioned in first sheet there are blank row between the data of two sheets.

    =QUERY({IMPORTRANGE("179zBHujwfCU-RX5378E7u5lfiVc5sNlK95ikemijRkY","'7 May 2024 - 20 May 2024'!H253:X270"); IMPORTRANGE("1AVAPqGRvAffQ1ANAdjzU5cYMGLvXIqZqy8CgsAqxZLM","'7 May 2024 - 20 May 2024'!I74:Y100")}, "select Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5,Col6,Col7,Col8,Col9,Col10,Col11,Col12,Col13,Col14,Col15,Col16,Col17")

    This results in 1st sheet data sets followed by blank cells and then by the 2nd spreadsheet data set, is there a way to remove the blank cells? if yes, every time each spreadsheet was updated will the master column adjust as well?

    Additionally, would just want to remove the blank cells between the two separate spreadsheets/url. The blanks within each column from the data set should remain next to each other

    after importance the blank row between the two data should be deleted. or is there a way to check the last non blank cell of sheet 1 and import only that range

    You can do that by changing the query statement to include a where Col__ is not null condition.

    So for example, from this:
    "select Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5,Col6,Col7,Col8,Col9,Col10,Col11,Col12,Col13,Col14,Col15,Col16,Col17"

    To this:
    "select Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5,Col6,Col7,Col8,Col9,Col10,Col11,Col12,Col13,Col14,Col15,Col16,Col17 where Col1 is not null"

    Its working fine in my Test tracker with less data as intended but when I execute it in the original tracker it throws an error message "in ARRAY_LITERAL an array literal was missing values for one or more row" any idea why its so.? But col1 has no missing values.

    As explained in your previous enquiries, you need to make sure the data is clean and complete.

    This is especially important with QUERY function.

    If you need more help then please provide sample files.

    Don't forget to make sure the settings are for Editor, otherwise theres not much we can do with the files.
