Hiding columns in Excel -
 

I have a work sheet that spans a1:gm50, most of which is optional data. When
attempting to hide the columns I don't want to see, I receive the message
"Cannot Shift Objects Off Page". It does not appear that the worksheet or
the workbook is protected. How can I get around this?
Thanking you in advance.

Remember to look for comments and merged cells.
