Lil,

I do not think that you have a problem with the menu system.  I think that
you have another issue.

In order to unhide a column you must have highlighted the hidden column by
selecting with the shift key and your cursor keys the columns on both sides.

For example.  If column B is hidden and you want to unhide it.  Select
columns A through C.  Then use your menu keys to unhide the column.

I believe that this is your issue.  You did not state that you had selected
a range that included the hidden column that you want to unhide.

I hope that I have been of some assistance.

By the way, you can find JAWS keyboard shortcuts for Excel by going to the
JAWS keyboard manager with the insert key and number 8 on the number row.

Subject: excel question


Hello,

I was wondering if there is a keyboard command to unhide a column in excel?
I can hide the column by going to the format menu and then arrow down to
column and right arrow over to hide.  This works, but when I repeat the
procedure and try to unhide the column nothing happens.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

Thanks,
Lil ~
