I am still not able to solve this problem:

This is an Excel question:

I attempt to hide several columns in excel and an error reports back
that

"cannot shift objects off of sheet".

I examine visually the columns and there is nothing visible. I do
have pictures and clip art, however these are not in the area or even
on this sheet. It must be a text box or other that I cannot see.

I have used the go to function - special options to highlight all
objects. It does not show any that would cause this problem.

Does someone have an idea about this problem?
