Questions:
I have one excel containing few grouped columns. Inside that group few columns are HIDDEN.( right click hide). When the group is collapsed .Hidden property of all the columns returns true, which I don’t want. Is there is way to identify originally Hidden columns apart from other group columns in a collapsed group ?
How to&Answers:
don’t fully understand the question but in VBA I can test to see if a column is hidden like this:
Option Explicit
Sub TestFunction()
'hide a few columns and then run me<<<<<<<<<<
Dim mySearchColumn As Integer
mySearchColumn = (CInt(Application.InputBox("input a column number")))
MsgBox ("you wanted to know about column " & mySearchColumn & ". Is it hidden: " & IsColumnHidden(mySearchColumn))
End Sub
Function IsColumnHidden(targetColumn As Integer) As Boolean
IsColumnHidden = False
If Columns(targetColumn).EntireColumn.Hidden Then
IsColumnHidden = True
End If
End Function
