    Lightbulb Unable to "unhide" column in table using access 2003


    I hid several columns in a table in order to enter some data more quickly. When I applied "unhide columns". All columns but one were restored. I looked at the "design view" and the column is in the design view. The column is indexed.
    Any suggestions?

    I don't have a solution for you, but I do have some questions. Why are you entering data directly into a table. This is a typical no-no in Access. Data should typically be entered into a form that can be bound to the table. It will then update the table automatically and exclude the possibility of accidentally deleting or changing data in the table. This is just good database management.
