[h=3]Grouping and Ungrouping Worksheets
A
workbook is a multi-page Excel document that contains multiple
worksheets. Sometimes
you will want to work with the worksheets one at a time as if each is a single unit. Other
times, the same information or formatting may need to be added to every worksheet. You
can type and retype the same information in each worksheet, or apply identical
formatting, or you can group the worksheet and enter the information once.
Worksheets can also be combined together into a group.
Grouping worksheets allows you
to apply identical formulas and/or formatting across all the worksheets in the group. When
you group worksheets, any changes made to one worksheet will also be changed in any other
worksheets in the group. If many worksheets are to have the same
data--regions, departments, quarters, months, weeks and days, for
example--then you type it once and it will appear on every worksheet included in the grouping.
