I've tried several things and searched but can't find an easy solution.
I have approx 400 sporadic hidden rows that i'm hiding formulas. When I filter, and then remove filter, my previously hidden rows are revealed.
Is there a way to keep them hidden?
I used a macro to filter as well and see I may be able to write a code to rehide them buts its a lot of rows.
any ideas?
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
What I would recommend doing is adding another column and populate it for these hidden rows with a value like "hidden".
Then include in your filter criteria for this column to hide those rows in addition to what you are trying to filter.
