Thumbs up Answer: row won't unhide

Hi Terie,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble unhiding rows in your Excel spreadsheet. Here are a few things you can try to fix the issue:
  1. Check if the rows are actually hidden: Sometimes, it can be easy to mistake hidden rows for deleted rows. To check if the rows are actually hidden, try selecting the rows above and below the hidden rows, right-clicking on them, and selecting "Unhide". If the hidden rows appear, then they were indeed hidden.
  2. Check if there are any filters applied: If you have filters applied to your spreadsheet, it can prevent certain rows from being visible. To check if there are any filters applied, go to the Data tab and look for the "Filter" button. If it's highlighted, click on it to turn off the filter and see if the hidden rows appear.
  3. Check if there are any grouping or outlining applied: If you have grouped or outlined any rows in your spreadsheet, it can prevent certain rows from being visible. To check if there are any grouping or outlining applied, look for the small plus or minus signs on the left-hand side of your spreadsheet. If there are any, click on them to expand or collapse the grouped or outlined rows and see if the hidden rows appear.
  4. Check if the rows are protected: If the worksheet or certain cells are protected, it can prevent you from unhiding rows. To check if the rows are protected, go to the Review tab and look for the "Protect Sheet" button. If it's highlighted, click on it to unprotect the sheet and see if the hidden rows appear.

I hope one of these solutions works for you. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there's anything else I can help you with.
