excel file with no sheet tabs
Hi
I just downloaded excel file .xlsx from the internet. It does not have sheet tabs. The first page is table of contents and it has forward arrow -> and back arrow <- to go from page to page (i think these arrow are hyperlinks). How can hide or remove sheet tabs?
Thank you.
Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.

You can show/hide the tab using VBA as suggested by Logit or you can just do it through the options
File > Options > Advanced > Show sheet tabs (Under Display options for this workbook)
Hi thanks for your reply.
I just noticed that ActiveWindow is a class of type Winodw, and Displayworkbok is a property of Window.
Then Why not do this instead
Window.DisplayWorkbook = Flase
Thank you

Then Why not do this instead
Window.DisplayWorkbook = Flase
Because it needs to know which window to take action on. ActiveWindow is the one you can see. But there could be other windows in that instance of Excel and if there is it will throw an error if you do not qualify the Window object. There is more, but you can read up on it elsewhere.
