Default Hiding Rows

I am able to hide rows but unable to unhide them. Worksheet not protect and
cells not locked - but cannot seem to solve this mystery.

Default Hiding Rows

R,

Normally, you unhide rows by selecting from each row on each side of the hidden row(s).
This will include the hidden row(s) between them. For example, if row 3 is hidden, select
rows from row 2 to row 4. Now right-click, and do the Unhide. Or you can put the mouse
just beyond the border (in the row header, at left) where the hidden row is, and you'll see
a double-line mouse pointer. Drag that away, as if you're stretching the zero-height
(hidden) row.

Default Hiding Rows

I like this technique:

Edit|Goto
type an address that is completely in the rows to unhide
For instance, if I wanted to show rows 7:10, I would type in:
A7:a10
or
B7:x10
or even
7:10

Then click ok
Then Format|row|unhide

Default Hiding Rows

How are you hiding the rows? If you are dragging the bottom edge of the row
up to the next row, it may be that the row is not actually hidden but has
just a very small height setting. If neither Earl nor Dave's answers work
for you try selecting a cell in the *hidden* row as Dave said and then
select Format Row Height and entering 12.75 or whatever height you want.
