    In an empty column, enter the following formula in row 2:

    =ISEVEN(ROW())

    Fill down to the last used row.

    Turn on Filter, and select either TRUE or FALSE depending on what you want.

    Select all the visible rows from row 2 down and delete them.

    Then turn off the filter, and clear the column.

    Add a help column, Copy that column and paste as value. Then you can sort that column and filter to delete unwanted rows.

    =MOD(ROW(),2)
