Deleting Cells
As you work with worksheets, you might find that data needs to be eliminated to keep the worksheet up-to-date. Or you might accidentally add an extraneous cell of data in a row or column. To avoid typing all your data again to rectify the error, you can delete extraneous cells and shift other cells to their correct locations.
