Select a Large Number of Individual Cells in Excel

In addition to a single cell, Excel allows you to select multiple unconnected cells independently by pressing ctrl when clicking the cells.
I use this feature to insert a row between each existing row, which is my ultimate goal. You can do this by independently selecting one cell in each row and then right-clicking and inserting rows.
This process works fine for tens of rows, but in some cases, I need to independently select 1000+ cells in a column to insert a row between each row in a large sheet. To be clear, I'm not talking about ranges. Instead of A1:A1000, I mean to select A1,A2,A3...A1000.
Is this possible without manually clicking each cell?
Insert a helper column with even numbers this way
type the value 2 into the first row
type the value 4 into the second row
select the two cells and double click the fill handle to fill down to the last row of your data or drag to the desired point.
Below your data, in the same column, enter odd numbers 1,3,5,etc, using a similar technique.
Next, sort your data by the new column.
Viola! Blank rows between all rows of data.

Excel Pivot functionality

Is there a way to remove the aggregate values that appear in the collapsed form in Pivot rows?
Please see the attached screenshot.
I dont want the Sum of the values that appear against a Name if the Row is in collapsed form. I have already selected "Do not show subtotals" but that doesnt remove this. Only when we expand the field, then the values on the header row disappear.
While this doesn't address the specific question, you could change the report layout to Tabular form. Your PT will look like this, where the 2nd named field is empty when collapsed. That may help someone identify when to ignore the numeric columns.
To better identify when to ignore those numeric values, you could also add conditional formatting to the numeric columns (C and D in this case).
Highlight the entire pivot column C and then go to Conditional Formatting... New Rule... Rule Type "Use a formula to determine which cells to format".
In the formula bar within the conditional formatting popup, type: =isblank(b4)
Click on the Format button.
Here you can decide to format the font or cell. Pick a format you want, such as a Gray cell.
Repeat steps above for column D.
Here, I choose a gray cell for Column C, and white text for Column D. Column D looks blank when collapsed, but it's really not.
Here's how the PT will look:

Prevent Excel table from auto-populating rows

If you have an Excel table (listobject) in which all the cells of a column contain the same formula, and you add one or more new rows, the formula will be automatically entered in all the new cells of the column. This is one of my favorite feature of Excel tables.
But my current table has more than one formula in the same column(s). And when I create a new row, it's filling it in with one of those formulas. Not only is it choosing what is usually the wrong formula, but in most cases I need the row to be blank.
Is there a way to turn off the auto-fill of table rows? (Especially if I can restrict it to particular columns.)
If necessary, I can write some VBA code to clear the row as its created, but I'd like to see other options first.
This first time you enter a formula in a table column the AutoCorrect options button should display. Click the button and select Stop Automatically Creating Calculated Columns. This should turn the autofill off for your table.

Excel table fill every third row

I need help with issue I'm having.
I got 2 sheets, 1st sheet is the table I need to fill and 2nd one is the data.
In the data part I have column A with employee number and B with names.
On the first sheet I have table that I need to fill but table is like this:
Blank row
Number column + Name column
Blank row
So when I just drag data to auto fill every third row formula skips employees and I only get every third name.
What can I do to fill every third row from 2nd sheet but without skipping names?
Kind of round about way that I have done it. On datasheet insert column a and put in values A1(1)A2(3)A3(5), Fill down this pattern this is to use as an index for filling the columns on your other sheet. On the sheet you are filling, insert a new column a and add 1,2,3 and fill down.
I used this vlookup:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,datasheet!A:C,2,FALSE),"")
I copy this to column b and fill both of these columns down. Now you have your values. You will have to do a copy and paste values to get rid of the formulas once the info is in there. Select all, copy. and Ctrl+Alt+V and select values to do the paste special.
Hope this helps.

Find and count each occurence of a name is column A then read a value from column B

I need a formula that is beyond me and my Excel skills, I need to insert the number of times a match is found in column A into column C and then insert the total number of days for that person in column D. Can anyone help?
In cell C2:
=COUNTIF(A$2:A$6,A2)
In cell D2:
=SUMIF(A$2:A$6,A2,B$2:B$6)

Have you considered using a pivot table? It's a little bit overkill but greatly simplifies what you want to do. Assuming your using Excel 2007:
Select the range of data including column labels.
Go to Insert->[Tables]->PivotTable.
In the dialog box that appears, select Existing Worksheet, choose a cell a click OK.
At this point, the PivotTable pane appears with your field names in one box and four other labeled boxes below.
Drag Name to the Row Labels box.
Drag Name to the Values box.
Drag Days to the Values box.
You're done!
