Select n lines before selecting Edit/Insert/Rows, this will insert n

Hope this helps,

It does, but it seems a bit inconvenient in that you have to know n in advance. It would be nice to have (say) an option under Paste Special to do what I mentioned, i.e. create space for the pasted rows rather than overwriting.

This must be dead simple, but I'm not finding it via google.

I select and copy n rows of material in sheet2 of a workbook, then I
switch to sheet1, use Insert to prepend a blank row, and do paste with the
cursor in A1. The effect is to overwrite the first n-1 rows in sheet1.

That's what you'd want sometimes, but what I want is for the paste to
prepend the sheet2 data, moving the existing rows down, not overwriting
them. How is that done, please?
