How to set a worksheet in WPS Spreadsheet

The Worksheet feature of the WPS Spreadsheet can perform several basic operations on the table. So now I'm going to show you the usage of Worksheet feature that it could be also used in Microsoft Office Excel and Openoffice.

· Insert Sheet

Click the Home tab, select Worksheet, then select Insert Sheet. Now we can set the number and position of the insert in the popup dialog box. Or we can also click the plus sign in the bottom column of the table to add directly.

· Delete Sheet

Click Delete Sheet to delete the current sheet. If we want to delete multiple sheets at once, just hold the Ctrlkey and select the sheet to that we want to delete at the same time, then click Delete the worksheet.

· Duplicate Sheet

Click Duplicate Sheet to copy the worksheet, or just hold the Ctrl key while dragging the worksheet.

· Move Sheet

If we need to move the worksheet in the same workbook, we can directly drag the worksheet to a suitable position with the mouse.  

If we need to move worksheets between different workbooks, we select Move or Copy Worksheets. After the dialog box pops up, select the workbook we want to move to at To Workbook, and select the needed worksheet at Before Sheet.

If you want to copy, check Create a copy.  In this way, we can move and copy the current worksheet to another workbook.

· Rename

Select Rename to rename the current worksheet, or we can also double-click the worksheet label to modify the name directly.

· Protect Sheet

Click Protect Sheet, then we can check the permissions we want to open in the pop-up dialog box. Enter the password here and click OK. Then the sheet is now protected and cannot be edited.

We can also click Unprotect Sheet to cancel the protection of the worksheet.

· Tab Color

Click Worksheet Tab Color, choose a color we like, and set it as the color of the current worksheet tab.

· Font Size

We can set the font size of the worksheet label in Font Size.

· Split Sheet

Take this salary table as an example. The current worksheet contains the salary details of all departments of the company. But how can we output different worksheets by different departments?

Click Split Worksheet and select the first split mode.

Check Has title, select Department, and then select Different new sheets. Now click OK to split the salary table into different worksheets by department.

· Merge Sheet

We just split the salary table into three worksheets, so howwill we merge it again?

Click Merge Sheets and select the first mode.  In the popup dialog box, we can check the worksheets that need to be merged, or add other files to merge together.  We can also specify which row to start to merge, and finally, click to confirm.

In this way, we can get a new workbook with data being merged successfully.
