Drag and Drop a Row in Excel

To reorder rows in Excel, you can use the drag-and-drop feature. First, select the entire row by clicking on the row number. Then, hover over the border of the selected row until the move cursor appears. Click and hold, then drag the row to your desired location. Release the mouse button to drop the row into place.

Alternative Reordering Methods

If drag-and-drop is not preferred, Excel also provides move-up or move-down commands to reorder rows. These commands can be accessed through the right-click context menu or through Excel's ribbon commands.

Contrary to Word, Excel does not support a direct feature to drag and drop rows or columns. Instead, utilize the methods described above for reordering.
