I'm betting that this window has frozen panes.

In xl2003 menus:
Windows|Unfreeze panes

Then scroll to the left.

Column A has data in it but it will not appear when I view the worksheet. If
I place the cursor in column A, I can see the value. The column is not
"hidden" and I cannot seem to be able to drag the column to make it larger.
The data only has 5 digits and the column appears wide enough when I check
the column width. I can figure out what's going on.
