Hi All,
I have received a file with almost entire rows colored and border formated(more than a million rows) while only 400 rows has data.
It makes this file very heavy and usually my Surface (I have to use it at work PC) crashes. I even tried to select all empty rows and delete them but the Surface can not handle that.
I was wondering if any other way to clean the formatting of empty rows without interfering with the other cells? I have tried Format Painting as well.
Do you guys know ant trick?
Appreciated.

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.
Select the entire sheet and clear borders and fill?
