How to unhide row 1 in excel

Answer

To unhide row 1 in Excel, follow these steps:

1. Select the rows around the hidden row

   • Click on the row header for row 2. This highlights the entire row.

   • Move the cursor to the top-left corner of the sheet, where the row numbers meet the column letters. Click the Select All button (the small square) to select all cells. This ensures row 1 is included even if it's hidden.

2. Unhide using the right-click menu

   • Right-click on the row header of row 2.

   • Click Unhide. Row 1 will now appear.

3. Unhide using the Ribbon

   • Go to the Home tab.

   • In the Cells group, click Format.

   • Hover over Hide & Unhide, then select Unhide Rows.

4. Unhide using the Name Box

   • Click the Name Box (to the left of the formula bar).

   • Type A1 and press Enter. This selects the first cell in row 1.

   • Use the Format → Hide & Unhide → Unhide Rows method from the Ribbon.

5. Keyboard Shortcut

   • Select the row below the hidden row.

   • Press Ctrl + Shift + 9 (Windows) or Command + Shift + 9 (Mac). Row 1 will become visible.

Notes:

• Hidden rows can occur if their height is set to zero. Unhiding restores the original height.

• The Ctrl + Shift + 9 shortcut only works if the hidden row is within the selected rows.

This method ensures that row 1 is unhidden without affecting any other rows or data in your sheet.
