Code:
DO:
        DEFINE VARIABLE hanCol  AS HANDLE  NO-UNDO.
        DEFINE VARIABLE logHide AS LOGICAL NO-UNDO.

        hanCol = BROWSE brwsCustomers:first-column. 
                
        DO WHILE VALID-HANDLE(hanCol):

                HIDE hanCol. 
            ELSE
                VIEW hanCol.   
                  
            hanCol = hanCol:NEXT-COLUMN.                   
        END.

Firstly, the row display trigger is the wrong place to hide and view browse columns so needs to be applied in a separate place.

Secondly, to hide or view a browse column you use the VISIBLE attribute. This article hopefully will help:
