I am using Excel 2003 and Windows XP Pro. I successfully hid several columns
in a worksheet. When I tried to unhide them using the instructions in help,
it didn't work. Does anyone know if there is a bug or if the help is wrong
and I should be using another procedure.
 
Have you tried selecting the previous column to the next column and then
right click>unhide?
ie: if c&d hidden, select b:e
 
Addition ways:

If you only want to unhide a single column (say column A):
Edit|goto|type A1 (and hit enter)
format|column|unhide (from the menubar)

You could actually type: A1:E1 to unhide columns A through E.

or even type: a1,c1,e1
to unhide just those 3 columns.

To get them all, hit ctrl-a (twice in xl2003) and then format|column|unhide
