Default Why won't th unhide function work??

Why won't the unhide function work on a sheet that I have created. I
previously hid about 175 rows between my last data entry and my summary.
Now when I try to unhide them, nothing happens.

I have to manually drag all of the hidden cells from a height of 0 to 12.75.

Going to format - row height and trying to set them all to 12.75 does not
work either.

Is there a way to do this other than me dragging rows 350 to 175 to open
them all up??

Try selecting the 2 rows on either side of the hidden rows and then unhide.

Tried it and still nothing. Not even selecting the entire sheet will work.

Remember that very very short rows can appear hidden. Make sure the rows in
question are not like that.

That's the problem. They were not like that - they were hidden, and now they
are acting like short rows. I can not unhide them nor set the height unless
I click and drag them.

Default Figured it out

For Now I have figured to use Go To: Edit -- Go To

In the reference box type in the cells in the hidden rows (i.e A109:A130)
These rows are now selected, but hidden.

Next go to: Format -- Row -- Height
Set height at what you want (i.e. 12.75)

The selected rows height changes from 0 to what you selected and they will
appear on screen again.
