This (though undoubtedly true) seems a complicated way of describing something very simple. The rows you need to select are those where you want the new empty rows to appear. What could be simpler?

The phrase "where you want the rows to appear" is, IMHO, not precise enough. For example, if I want to insert rows between rows 10 and 11, what does the phrase mean? If I select both rows 10 and 11 as well as 8 others because I want to insert 10 rows then, when I right click and choose Insert Rows they go *above* row 10 which is *not* what I wanted. If I select rows 1-10, again to insert 10 rows, then they go above row 1. In both cases it could be said that I have selected rows "where I want the new rows to appear". Call me a pedant if you like; my chest will swell with pride ;-)
