To modify all rows or columns:

Rather than resizing rows and columns individually, you can modify the height and width of every row and column at the same time. This method allows you to set a uniform size for every row and column in your worksheet. In our example, we will set a uniform row height.

  1. Locate and click the Select All button select all button just below the formula bar to select every cell in the worksheet.
