I am using office 2003 SP3. I have a workbook that doesn't display on a
computer when opened. Nothing shows in the body of the screen,no column or
row headers, not even the cursor. There are no error messages. If I click on
'Print Preview' the preview displays the work book properly. In the formula
bar, the information for each cell is displayed and changes when I use the
arrows to move the cursor. Under the window option, it does not show that the
workbook is hidden. I cannot try unhiding rows or columns since there are no
headers to click on.

Any other workbook I try opens with no problems. Also, I can open this
particular workbook on another computer with no problem.

Any suggestions /clues?
 
I found a resolution on the boards. Apparently the workbook was resized to an
infintesimal size. To get it to redisplay, I went to the
Window/Arrange/Verticle. This resized the workbook to fit the screen with
other open workbooks. I was then able to maximize the workbook and continue
working. I still don't understand why this was a problem on one PC and two
others, but it is working now.
 
Hi,

Open the file and choose the command Window, Unhide and see if that gets you
anything.

If this helps, please click the Yes button
