Display columns or rows based on values
I am familiar with the custom views feature in Excel 2007. Is there a way to
cause rows or columns to automatically be hidden or displayed based on values in row 1 or column A? For example, is there a way to select a custom view and show only those columns where row 1 = "show this column" as opposed to selecting each column and hiding it and then saving as a custom view. I have a spreadsheet with many columns and likely, many custom views and I am looking for a way to automate this. Thanks in advance, bmac |
Display columns or rows based on values
It would be a lot easier if I knew that the columns to NOT show were blank.
If that's the case, you can either have a macro do this or manually (pretty easy). Manually (and you can record this in your personal.xlsm to playback) select row 1, use Goto/Special, select Blanks, then press ctrl-0. After a little cleanup, the 1-line macro is: Rows(1).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireColum n.Hidden = True HTH Bob Umlas Excel MVP "bmac" wrote: I am familiar with the custom views feature in Excel 2007.
