My client has to hide columns in order to
print certain other columns. Sometimes it's
OK and other times it sends her the msg:

Cannot shift objects off sheet. I have never
seen the msg. Can anyone tell me why she would get this msg.
Thanks
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Is your client trying to Hide all the unused columns ? This will bring up this message if there is a button or other object on these columns

My client insists she has no objects.
What exactly are considered objects.
She has fill and colors, but if this is the problem, why she asks do some of the colums
with color hide.
She also has comments. Are they considered objects
There are no buttons as she knows not how to create buttons- no filters.

Comments are a part of the Shapes Object.
If there are comments here or near the end of the columns then this error will Occur.
