When Excel opens data is displayed and then blanks out.
 

I have Excel sp3 on win2k sp4

When trying to keep unwanted blank sections from printing I blanked out the
worksheet. I exited with out saving and reopened the spreadsheet. The data
is displayed for a few seconds and the sheet blanks out. I tried this from
another computer and got the same results.
A inport into MS ACCESS sees the data on the sheet.

Thanks for any help

Please expand on what you did to "blank out" the sheet.
Did you hide it? If so: try Format|Sheet|Unhide
Did you cover some cells with fill?..... or what

Thanks for the reply sorry this was delayed but I was having internet
slowness this morning

When I printed the sheet I got 9 pages 7 of them blank. I was trying to
delete the blank area. I selected sections and deleted them but they were not
removed. At some point I got into page view. When I went back to page 1 the
data was blank. I think I have checked for hidden and color settings.
