Hi Sharon
Chuck has just about got it covered, but if you want to do a global unhide,
select the button where the row headers and column headers intersect, ( up in
the top left hand corner).....and then click Unhide.

That should have done it..........
Two things come to mind.........is the sheet "Protected"
Maybe the columns are showing but very narrow...........try highlighting the
columns on either side and setting the colunn width to something like 8 ro
10........
