Hi Wayne,

Sure, I can help you with that. Here are the steps to hide columns AQ23 to AZ23 in Microsoft Excel:

1. Select the columns you want to hide. In this case, click on column AQ and drag the mouse to column AZ to select all the columns in between.
2. Right-click on any of the selected column headers. This will open a drop-down menu.
3. From the drop-down menu, select "Hide". This will hide the selected columns.
   
   Alternatively, you can also use the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl + 0" to hide the selected columns.

To unhide the columns, follow these steps:

1. Select the columns on either side of the hidden columns. In this case, select columns AP and BA.
2. Right-click on any of the selected column headers.
3. From the drop-down menu, select "Unhide". This will unhide the hidden columns.
   
   Alternatively, you can also use the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl + Shift + 0" to unhide the selected columns.

Wayne,

You could try recording a macro. AQ23 - AZ23 refers to a specific cell
range, as opposed to columns. So I am assuming that you mean columns AQ:AZ.

Tools, macro, record new macro.

'Do your thing, in your case highlight the columns, right click, hide'

tools, macro, stop recording.

ALT + F11, click on modules, and you should see what you recorded.

Following that you could try: In design mode, insert command button
somewhere in your worksheet, double click the command button, insert/paste
the macro you recorded earlier. Exit design mode.

You can't, but if you wish you can format the text in the cells to be the
same colour as the background so that the text is not visible.

Firstly, what you are wanting to do is to hide a range of horizontal cells
NOT a number of columns.

If row 23 is populated ONLY between AQ and AZ-
Take the mouse cursor to the row number (to highlight the entire row)
Click on <Format<Row<Hide
to hide the entire row.

You cannot hide a range of cells. However, you could colour both text and
background white. That may keep prying eyes away. There may be other ways?

You cannot hide parts of columns or rows.

You can hide the contents of AQ23:AZ23 by formatting to Custom ;;; or changing
color to white.

Thanks to all. I have a yearly chart that I wanted to hide so I could bring
up the month chart when my average macro is run.

Thanks again
