    Question Columns - Expand and Collapse

    See small exhibit attachment. Grid on the left ( A1 to E8 ) ... need to be able to collapse ( and then be able to re-expand ) columns B, C and D to look like the grid on the right ( H1 to I8 ) ... basically, hide the detail and only show row totals. End users of this application are not Excel experts ... do not want to Hide and Unhide the columns.
