Sometimes when I have created a custom view and then go to view it I get a
message 'Some view settings could not be applied'. This happens sometimes and
not at other times when I do a simple filter and hide columns even though I
am doing the same thing. I am using Office 2003 and Windows XP
 
I very rarely use custom views. But in the few times I have used them, I have
seen that warning message.

I could never find what the heck the settings were that could not be applied.

Personally, I like to use macros to show my "custom views". I remember a
workbook that had one worksheet that had lots and lots of columns and a lot of
rows.

I recorded macros that would show all the data and separate macros that would
hide columns and filter the rows. Each macro was named after the person/group
that wanted that "view".

I'm not sure if that's an option for you, but it worked fine for me.
 
Thanks for that it is worth a try but isn't it frustrating that no one seems
to know what the problem is!
