FAQ

Q1: Is the data in a hidden worksheet still there?

  • Solution: Hiding only means it is not displayed; the data is fully retained. After unhiding, it can be viewed and edited normally.

Notes

  • The workbook must retain at least one visible worksheet
  • Data in hidden worksheets can still be referenced by formulas
  • Hiding is not the same as protecting; data can still be accessed
