Default Adding an extra row after every existing row

Good to hear you're "sorted" out.

Feedback always appreciated and lets us know what works and what doesn't.

Thanks very much Gord, now it works fantastic!! the "now header row" click
was a good tip.

Let's go over it again.

1. In row 1 of an an adjacent blank column....say H1... enter 1.

2. In H2 enter a 2.

3. Select both those cells and double-click fill handle of H2 to copy down to
H61.

4. Select H1:H61 and Copy.

5. Select H62 and Paste.

6. Select all your used columns including H and DataSort "My data range has
no header row"

7. Sort Ascending on column H to get

1
1 blank
2
2 blank
3
3 blank

8. Delete Column H

Sorry Gord, I know you are trying to help but I really couldn't follow you. I
tried to understand and do what you suggested several ways but all that
happens is that the existing data remain exactly as before and I only got an
extra 61 rows AFTER the existing rows and not each one in between.

If just for visual purposes, simply select all rows, which are the 1,2,3,4,5 and
not the columns which are A,B,C,D and double their height.

If you truly need a row inserted, in a helper column enter numbers 1 to 61.

Copy that range and paste to row 62.

Sort on that column ascending to get your blank rows.

I have an excel worksheet with about 61 rows. Now i have to add another row
with the same text after EACH existing row - between row A and B, row B and C
etc. Is there any quick way to insert all these rows or do I simply have to
manually insert row by row.
