Hey, welcome back to the MrExcel netcast, I'm Bill Jelen.
And today's question sent in by Riham, Riham actually sent in a screenshot of his idea, and it's a great idea, it just isn't going to work.
Riham has so many different worksheets, he said “Hey, is there any way to make the sheet tabs down here appear as two rows, wouldn't that be cool?” OK now, I don't know any way to do that, but let's talk about what we can do to make sure that we see as many sheet tabs as possible.
OK, so the one thing we have is, we have sheet tabs here, and we have the scroll bar, and you can actually make the scroll bar larger or smaller by going right to that spot, right there.
So if I click there, I can drag to the left, of course, that's not what we want to do, we can drag to the right and then we get to see as many sheet tabs as possible.
Also over here, I know a lot of people know the left-right, you can jump to the end or jump to the beginning.
But what not a lot of people know is that, if you right-click that area, it brings up a list of, you know, what, the first 15 sheets, and then you can click More Sheets if you'd like, and get to a list of all the sheets.
So, you know, not as good of an idea as Riham sent in, but certainly a few tricks there that are kind of obscure, that many people don't realize that they can use.
So right-clicking to bring up the list of sheets and then More Sheets, good way to go.
Hey, I want to thank Riham for sending that question in, I want to thank you for stopping by, see you next time for another netcast from MrExcel!
Hey, now if you have Easy-XL, check this out.
They have the Open Workbooks, hover over Book2, and there is a list of all the worksheets, I think that's a lot better than what we have.
We also have something called the Navigator, the worksheet Navigator, workbook shows you all the open workbooks. and all the sheet spam, you can just jump to one.
You can actually use it to Protect, Print, Combine, all kinds of things using Easy-XL!
