8.12.3 Inserting Rows and Columns

While creating or changing spreadsheets, you may need to add new rows or columns. NExS makes this very easy to do with the Insert operation from the Edit menu. The Insert operation creates new, empty row(s) or column(s) at the current location in the spreadsheet. Existing rows and columns are re-indexed to take the additional rows and columns into account. NExS updates all cell references in formulas to match the new row or column addresses.

  To insert a new, empty row(s):

  1. Move the cell cursor to the row above which you would like to insert an empty row. To insert more than one row, select a range containing the number of rows you wish to insert starting at that position.

  2. Select Insert from the Edit menu to display its cascading submenu.

  3. Select Insert Row from the Insert submenu.

  To insert a new, empty column(s):

  1. Move the cursor one column to the right of where you want to insert an empty column. To insert more than one column, select a range containing the number of columns you wish to insert starting at that position.

  2. Select Insert from the Edit menu to display its cascading submenu.

  3. Select Insert Column from the Insert submenu.
