Column A Disappeared; Not Hidden

I have a workbook that has been "missing" column A for several months. I have tried all possible suggestions presented on prior threads here, done additional internet research, but have not been able to make the column reappear. I ultimately recreated it, but now that I have downtime before the new year, I am seeing if I can get to the cause and correction of the issue. I have tried selecting all columns, and all cells, typing A1 into the name box, formatting all columns, unhiding all, etc., and I still have no column A. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Thank you in advance for any input.

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
you recreated A, yet you still can't see it, can you post a sanitised file to the web in a well known location type that is available to download

Seriously? I'm unsure whether to be ecstatic or mortified that the fix was so easy. I never use the freeze panes options, so I never thought once to look there. I must have hit a keyboard shortcut somewhere along the way. Thank you for being brilliant! :)
