Excel Random Row Heights

I've used Excel for at least 20 years now an I haven't come across this issue before. Basically we use a shared document to track job processes and it has a header section with key details, summary data and flags for some Macros and the other day all the row heights in the header section reduced so that it looked like the rows were hidden.
