Ten Minute Guide to Excel 97

Changing Worksheet Tab Names

By default, all worksheets are named "SheetX," where X is a number starting with the number 1. So that you'll have a better idea of the information each sheet contains, you can change the names that appear on the tabs. Here's how you do it:

1. Double-click the tab of the worksheet you want to rename. The current name is highlighted.

2. Type a new name for the worksheet and press Enter. Excel replaces the default name with the name you typed.
