How to copy and paste cell sizes (column widths and row heights) in Excel?

As we know, we can copy a range without losing column widths with Home > Paste > Paste Special > Column widths. But how to copy range without losing cell size (both column widths and row heights) in Excel? This article provides two workarounds to get it done.


Copy and paste cell sizes (column widths and row heights) with Copy feature

This method will guide you to copy all cells in one worksheet, and then paste into another worksheet with keeping the original cell sizes (both column widths and row heights) in Excel. Please do as follows:

1. Go to the worksheet where you will copy cell sizes, click the arrow  at the up-left corner of working area to select all cells in active worksheet.

2. Copy all cells with pressing the Ctrl + C keys at the same time.

3. Go the destination worksheet where you will paste the cell sizes, and click the arrow  at the up-left corner of working area to select all cells in active worksheet.

4. Paste all cells with pressing the Ctrl + V keys at the same time.

5. Keep selecting all cells, and press the Delete key to clear all cell contents.

And then all cell sizes are copied from one worksheet to another one. See below screenshot:
