How do you rename an Excel sheet?

There are several ways to rename an Excel sheet, but here's a common and straightforward method:

Using the Ribbon:

1. Select the sheet you want to rename by clicking on its tab at the bottom of the Excel window.
2. Go to the Home tab on the ribbon (the toolbar at the top).
3. In the Cells group, click on Format.
4. Under the Organize Sheets section, select Rename Sheet.
5. The sheet tab will now be highlighted. Type the new name for the sheet.
6. Press Enter or Return to save the new name.

Alternative Methods:

• Right-Click Method: Right-click on the sheet tab you want to rename. Select "Rename" from the context menu. Type the new name and press Enter.
• Double-Click Method: Double-click on the sheet tab you want to rename. Type the new name and press Enter.

Important Considerations:

• Sheet names must be unique within the workbook. You can't have two sheets with the same name.
• Sheet names can contain up to 31 characters.
• You can't use the following characters in sheet names: : \ / ? * [ ]

By using any of these methods, you can easily rename your Excel sheets to better organize your data.
