My Shift key doesn't appear to be broken, so this one's got me stumped: Looking online, I've been told the keyboard shortcuts for hiding and unhiding columns in Excel are Ctrl+0 and Ctrl+Shift+0, respectively.
The former of these works for me in Excel 2010, but for some reason the unhide shortcut does nothing. Has that keyboard shortcut changed, or... what am I missing?
This in Windows 8.1 the same thing applies but the settings are arranged slightly differently. Disabling the input language default of
alt + shift
fixes it, pity thectrl + shift + )
could not have been displayed in the settings, Windows needs a central shortcut config area. – Menuta – 2015-05-21T21:59:07.517+1, Good answer to your own question. The fact you got it to work makes it a bit bizarre that they took it out of the list of shortcuts. – Jarvin – 2010-08-31T21:44:54.397
It is a strange (and, given the question/answer here, ironic) oversight... – Dan J – 2010-08-31T21:48:56.417
+1 - Good job figuring it out. I tried it on XP which explains why I couldn't replicate! – JNK – 2010-09-01T00:08:09.157
