MS Excel 2003: Insert a sheet

This Excel tutorial explains how to insert a sheet in Excel 2003 (with screenshots and step-by-step instructions).

Question: How do I insert a new sheet in Microsoft Excel 2003?

Answer: When you create a new document in Excel 2003, your spreadsheet will automatically be created with three worksheets called Sheet1, Sheet2, and Sheet3. You can easily add more sheets as you need them.

You can view all of the sheet names as tabs along the bottom of the document. To add a new sheet, simply right-click on one of the sheet names and select Insert from the popup menu. The new sheet will be inserted to the left of the current sheet.

When the Insert menu appears, select the Worksheet icon and then click on the OK button.

Now when you return to your spreadsheet, a new sheet should be inserted and you will be positioned on cell A1 within this new sheet. In this example, Sheet4 has been inserted into the spreadsheet. Excel will always name its sheets as Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3, Sheet4, and so on.
