Is RowHeight=0 the same as Hidden

[Michelle]

I'm manipulating rows, and I want to know if I can distinguish between rows
that have been hidden, and rows that have been set to RowHeight = 0.

Thanks

If you hide a row its height becomes 0
If you set a row's height to 0 it becomes hidden

AFAIK there is no way to distinguish which method was used to hide and make
the height 0.

If you set the row height to zero, the Hidden property of that row will
become True.
It is usually better to Hide the row because it is then not necessary to
"remember" what the height used to be before you hid it.

Just note that in Excel 2007, the row is "Hidden" even with a value of 0.5.
Don't quote me on this, but I believe in versions around Excel 97, a Row
height of 1 or 2 also returned true.

Sub Demo()
Rows(1).RowHeight = 0.5
Debug.Print Rows(1).Hidden ' <- True
End Sub
