    can't get row 1

    I have excel 2010 on a sheet it starts at row 2 when I use goto (a1) it gives a dark blak line on the bottom of the A colum but I can't get it to expand.

    Probably a hidden row..

    Click the grey square at top left corner at intersection of columns/rows..

    then right click on any row number and select Unhide.
    Where there is a will there are many ways.

    Try clicking on the top left corner of the sheet to highlight the entire sheet - then right click and "unhide"

    Do Alt+F11 to open the VBE

    Press Ctrl+R if the VBAProject window is not showing. Click Sheet1.

    Press F4 if the Properties window is not showing. If there is anything in the Scroll area property, clear it.

    Do Alt+Q to return to Excel.

    If it's still not there, clear the data and post the workbook.

    View > Freeze panes, Unfreeze

    Please don't quote whole posts. It's just clutter.

    works for me. Toggle a few times between freezing top row and unfreezing panes. Don't forget to up-arrow to row 1 in between to see if you can now see it. It won't come into focus automatically. You have to navigate there.

    Thanks that was great!

    same problem, I was frustrated with not seeing row 1, your unfreeze and arrow up works!
