Hidden data

How do you find data on a spreadsheet hidden by someone else

RE: Hidden data

Dear Angelika

Thank you for attending Excel 2007 Intermediate course. I hope you enjoyed the courses and benefited from it.

It is important to understand that if the user has hidden the data and then protected the worksheet with a password then you cannot view the hidden data (this could be hidden rows/columns/workseets/formulae/functions, etc...) unless you have the password.

Sometimes when you protect worksheet you can allow the other people to make certian ammendments such as inserting, deleting rows or columns or do formatting on the cells. etc... This depends upon the discretion of the person who the speardsheet originally belongs to.

I hope this helps in answering your query.

Please mark this post as resolved if you are happy with the answer!!

Many thanks

Kindest Regards

Excel tip:

Convert Text to Columns in Excel 2010

If you have a cell in your Excel spreadsheet that contains a lot of text and you want to divide it into separate columns, this can only be done if there is a logical character which separates the text, for example, a comma.

Select the cells you would like to convert. On the Data tab, click Text to Columns. Choose the format of your current data.

Select Delimited if the text contains a logical character otherwise select Fixed Width if there are a certain number of spaces between each field.

Click Next when a preview of the data appears. Then select the type of character that separates the various fields. If the character is not listed, select Other and enter the character.

Click Next again and then choose the format for each of the columns. Select the column heading in the Data preview and then select a data type from the Column data format options.

Click Finish and the text will appear in several columns.
