Wow -- hide and unhide?

Did you not hear about this:

http://abajournal.com/news/excel_error_by_a_cleary_gottlieb_associate_a…

"Barclays Capital has been forced to file a legal relief motion relating to its acquisition of Lehman Brothers' US assets after a reformatting error with an Excel spreadsheet resulted in 179 contracts being mistakenly included in the purchase agreement"

"The associate resized the rows when converting the spreadsheet into a PDF document, causing “hidden” contracts in the spreadsheet to be exposed. The spreadsheet, which had been e-mailed to the law firm by a Lehman representative, contained nearly 1,000 rows and more than 24,000 individual cells."

If you group rows first then you can hide/unhide using ctrl + 9 for rows (shift to unhide) and ctrl + 0 for columns (shift to unhide). As long as you group them first then the little "+" will be there and you won't lose the rows/columns.
