Glossary Item Box

You can remove one or more columns or rows from a sheet. You can use the methods in the SheetView class or the methods in the DefaultSheetDataModel class.

For more details refer to the SheetView.RemoveRows method or SheetView.RemoveColumns method.

If you simply want to hide the row or column from the end user, but not remove it from the sheet, refer to Showing or Hiding a Row or Column.
