The steps before moving a row to another row in Excel are relatively straightforward and can be achieved by dragging and dropping or cutting and pasting. Here are the detailed steps:
Select RowsFirst, select the entire row you want to move. You can do this by clicking on the line number on the far left of the line.
Drag and drop lines: Move the mouse pointer over the border of the selected row until the mouse pointer changes to a cross icon with an arrow. Then, click and hold down the left mouse button and drag the row to the desired location.
Move the tip: As you drag, you'll see a thick line or caret indicating where it's currently placed. Drag the selected row above or below the row you want it to be on.
Release the mouse: Once the caret is in the correct position, release the left mouse button to place the line.
Select and cut the row: Select the row you want to move, then right-click on the selected row and select "Cut", or use the shortcut keyctrl + x（windows）/cmd + x（mac）。
Select the paste location: Click the line number above or below the target location to select it. Right-click the selected line number and select "Insert Cut Cell" from the pop-up menu.
If you want to move a row in front of another row, you need to select that row and then paste it. Excel will insert the cut line on top of the selected row.
Drag-and-drop methodProbably more intuitive, allowing you to determine the new position of the row through visual feedback.
Cut and paste methodsProvides more control, especially when you need to move rows over large distances.
Before doing this, it's a good idea to back up your data in case of accidental loss.
Depending on your specific needs, you can choose the method that best suits your workflow.
