No 1: You can hide all other rows and columns. Here's how:
1. Let's say you have data you want to be visible in rows 1 through to 30 and columns A through to H.
2. Click on the column label for Column I (The grey box where it actually says 'I') and drag the mouse as far right as you can. Eventually, you'll have highlighted all columns from I to the end of the sheet.
3. Right-click any selected column label and select 'hide'
4. click on the row label for row 31 and drag down. Be patient. Eventually, you'll have selected over 65,000 rows.
5. Right-click any selected row label and select 'hide'.
This is also a useful technique to prevent users from scrolling your sheet off screen and getting lost.
