Default Hide column and show only in row in use

I only want to hide certain columns and then only show the cells in the
column when I use that particular row to avoid the page looking busy, help!

Hi Kylie,
Set up your page with the appropriate columns hidden then press
[alt+v+v] & [add] to set up a custom view eg "what I want to see"
(details in Excel help). I also set up one with nothing hidden which I
refer to as "show all info", & this allows for quick flicking b/n 2 or
more views.

The macro provided at the link below won't help your page look "less
busy" but it will draw your attention to the row you are on by
highlighting it yellow & could be adapted for highlighting columns.
