Correction: In our April 20 edition, the Hot Tip incorrectly stated that by hiding the upper and lower bound columns in the American Community Survey tables in American FactFinder, you would be able to show more columns on the screen at one time. In actuality, if you hide the upper and lower bound columns you are still only able to see the original number of columns (the limit is five columns) on the screen.
