Hi @Hemant_Deshmukh

Better to use Delete rows than keyboard shortcuts

Check out this video this will help you

Hope this helps :slight_smile:

Numbers of rows are not fix…

You want to clear the whole sheet? Can you post your sheet here? Which rows you want to clear

@Hemant_Deshmukh

If you want to clear whole sheet then use clear data activity

If you want to cleqr only specific rows which you know then use delete rows

If you want to clear rows based on a filter then first use filter datatable and in delete rows you have option to clear visible or non visible rows can use it to delete filtered data

Cheers
