Learn how to insert multiple rows in Excel.

In Excel, you can insert multiple rows in several ways:

Here are the steps that is outlined in the video.
1) Select the whole row by clicking on a row header.
2) Move cursor out of the highlighted row.
3) Hold Shift
4) Move cursor to the edge of the highlighted row so that the cursor icon looks like resizing icon (equal with up and down arrow).
5) Still holding Shift, left mouse click and drag to the number of rows you want to insert.
6) Release both Shift and left mouse click.

Here are the other ways.
1) Using the ribbon:
* Select the number of rows that you want to insert.
* Go to the "Home" tab on the ribbon.
* In the "Cells" group, click the "Insert" button.
* Select "Insert Sheet Rows" from the drop-down menu.

2) Using the right-click method:
* Select the number of rows that you want to insert.
* Right-click on any of the selected rows.
* Select "Insert" from the context menu.

3) Using the keyboard shortcut:
* Select the number of rows that you want to insert.
* Press "Ctrl + "+" on your keyboard.

4) Using the "Table" option:
* Select the cell where you want to start your table.
* Go to the "Insert" tab on the ribbon.
* In the "Tables" group, click the "Table" button.
* Excel will automatically create a table and add the necessary rows.

In all the above methods, Excel will insert the same number of rows as the number of rows you selected before the command was executed. Please note that when you insert rows, the existing data will be shifted down, and the new rows will be added above the selected rows.

00:04keyboard and mouse click but there was a lot of confusion on how this is done
00:07because a lot of people are getting a height in the row increment rather than
00:12inserting multiple rows. Well let me slow down this process and I show you how
00:16this is done. First you're gonna have to select the entire row by clicking this
00:20the column sorry the row header like this. Select the entire row like this.
00:26After that hold the shift key first before you move the cursor into the
00:30selected row. Hold the shift key any left or right shift key and then move your
00:36cursor such that the icon of your cursor will look like this. Two equal with the
00:41arrow up and down and now while holding a shift key click on your left mouse button
00:47and drag however many rows that you want to insert like this and then once you
