Hi :)
It might be possible by saving as a .csv file (possibly losing all the
formulas and certainly all the formatting) and then use a text-editor
to remove some of the commas.

It's not much more elegant and would probably take even longer and
maybe even make quite a mess - but it might be an option!
Regards from
Tom :)
