Each new sheet in MS Excel comes up with a 1,048,576 rows and 16,384 columns. While it has a certain binary romantic ring to it (2^20 rows & 2^14 columns), I am yet to meet anyone using even half the number of rows & columns Excel has to offer.
So why leave all those empty rows & columns hanging in your reports?
Would it not look cool if your reports showed only few rows & columns as needed, like this:
Today, lets learn how to do this.
Showing only few rows & columns in Excel
Step 1: Select the column from which you want to hide.
Step 2: Press CTRL+Shift+Right Arrow to select all the columns till XFD.
Step 3: Right click and hide
Step 4: Select the row from which you want to hide.
Step 5: Press CTRL+Shift+Down Arrow to select all rows until 2^20
Step 6: Hide the rows too. And you are done!

Thanks so much for this, it's utterly brilliant!
Silly question - I assume LAMDA will work with dynamic arrays?
Very much so. Many of the new functions like MAP only make sense in the context of dynamic arrays and Lambda functions.
As usual, very informative material. Easy to understand and apply!
Thanks for making everyone awesome!
Easy to understand Lambda function through this tutorial. Thanks Chandoo.
I have Officce 365 (updated), but I can't see LAMBDA function. 🙁
I dont see "Office Insider" option in my excel 365.
Another option for First Monday...
=LAMBDA(anydate,WORKDAY.INTL(EOMONTH(anydate,-1),1,"0111111"))
Loving the binary options in WORKDAY.INTL David...
