Operation Manual
Note
The sheet tab arrows that appear in Figure 98 are only active if there are sheet
tabs that cannot be seen.
Note
When you insert a new sheet into your spreadsheet, Calc automatically uses the
next number in the numeric sequence as a name. Depending on which sheet is
open when you insert a new sheet, your new sheet may not be in numerical order.
It is recommended to rename sheets in your spreadsheet to make them more
recognizable.
