Did anyone solve this problem?
I have exactly the same issue - I have checked the end of the spreadsheet
and its not in column IV. I have also deleted all rows and columns beyond the
range of the sheet but still get the error mesage.
Interestingly I still get the error message when I try to hide a column.
Also is the mention of "objects" significant?

I have a spreadsheet that, after running Subtotals from the Data menu,
returns the error message "Cannot shift objects off sheet" when I try to
condense the spreadsheet. There are no comments on the spreadsheet. I
selected all cells and pressed "Delete". The susbtotal range is below any
text. After running Subtotals, there are a total of 2,374 roows. What gives?
