You will NOT be able to delete those extra rows and columns as all
sheets are a fixed size. All you can do is to hide them.

Hope this helps.

I cannot eliminate the extra columns to the right and rows below my Excel

they remain.

I can hide them, but when I save my spreadsheet and then open again, they
are not hidden. *I set my print area, and they do not print, but my
supervisor believes there is a way to eliminate them so that when we forward
the document they will not be seen.

Has anyone had this same issue?
