Can't Open Excel File

Copper Contributor

Hello - An Excel file with about 20 sheets suddenly closed yesterday (triggered by typing a / as the first character in a cell) and I can't open it, or at least see the data. On OneDrive I get the message attached.

On my computer, it knows the file is open but I can't see the content.

Regards - Phil Sheppard

In Desktop Excel, open the file. Then click the View menu and click the Unhide button.

@Jan Karel Pieterse- Whew, I can see everything! Thank you very much indeed. You've saved me a lot of worry and time.
