I tried to open an old Excel sheet, and columns A through AM were hidden. I cannot open the hidden columns by using the Unhide action (highlighting the entire sheet). Any suggestions that would enable me to open these hidden columns would be appreciated. Thanks.

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Try changing the column widths.

Thanks, I was able to expose the whole sheet using the following macro:

Sub UnhideAllColumns ()
Cells.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
EndSub
