Finding a specific spreadsheet in a large book
If you have a workbook with many sheets it can be cumbersome to use the previous and next navigation buttons to find the particular sheet you want. A more expedient method is to list each spreadsheet in the book so that you can select the one you want.
- Right-click any tab in your workbook and select Display from the shortcut menu.
The Sheets in book field lists all the spreadsheets in your book. The Columns in selected sheet field shows a preview of the columns in the current sheet and is for information only.
- Select the sheet you want to display then click OK.
