Selecting a Column or Row Dividing Line

The column or row dividing lines are the lines between the column letter labels and row number labels along the borders of the worksheet. These lines divide the columns or rows. When selecting a dividing line, the cursor must be within approximately a character's width of the dividing line and it must be on the label bar.

You can change the column width or row height by dragging the dividing line. Rows or columns can be hidden or unhidden by using the mouse. The Column Width or Row Height commands can also be used to set column widths or row heights.
