I have a workbook and the lines keep hiding. I.E I have line no 1072-1145 hidden then until line 1416 is ok then line 1417-1456 hidden and ok till line 1460-1574 hidden.

Whats the reason this keeps happening and is there any way I can unhide all the lines without unhiding everyone seperately.

Many Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Are there any macros or Subtotals with drill-down menus in this file?

You say they keep hiding. When do they hide? Are they unhidden when you start? Is it happening in all sheets and all workbooks or just some/one? Do they seem to hide when you take a particular action?

and is there any way I can unhide all the lines without unhiding everyone seperately.
1. Click the 'Select All' button (grey rectangle above row 1 and left of column A labels.
2. Format|Row|Unhide

I may of found the answer but wanna confirm. I took all the filters off the workbook and all of a sudden all the missing lines re appear.

Is this common?

You didn't mention that there were filters on the sheet but that is exactly what filters are for - to hide rows.
