Hi Nihal,

Want to delete the cells?
Right click and choose delete cells.

Want to delete the contents?
Backspace.

Want to delete contents and ....
Choose delete etc.
This dialogue opens with the same options set as use the time before.

Want a special combination quick on hand?
Write/record a macro and assign that to a key-combination.

Kind regards,

Cor
