Glad it worked.

Advance Filter (if you filter in place does that) and you don't see the
drop-downs as you do with Auto Filter

I didn't see any filter set.

It might be due to Advance Filter... Have you tried to clear the filter?

If it does not work then try to change the row hight to a fixed value.

As a last resort, as you said, loop throught the rows and clear the hidden
setting...

I have a number of rows in the middle of my data that are hidden and

height is zero. I have selected the entire sheet and issued both manual
commands (Format, Row, Unhide or autofit) and the row stays hidden. I
have
done the same with vb code:

ActiveSheet.UsedRange.EntireRow.Hidden = False
ActiveSheet.UsedRange.EntireRow.AutoFit

and the rows stay hidden. The only way I have found to make a row
visible
is to specifically change the row's hidden property. For example:

Rows(663).Hidden = False

Obviously I can rotate through all the rows, but that is very
inefficient.
The worksheet is not protected. I can delete the rows any time I want.

Any idea why the first two commands above do not work? Using Excel 2003.
