You may need or want to update the name of a tab in SecureSheet.  The name of every tab that is imported from Excel must match excatly the tab name in SecureSheet or the import will fail.  

Example scenarios in which updating a tab name may occur include:

  • Adding a new tab to SecureSheet. When you add a tab, it defaults a name. Change this to the tab name you will import from Excel.
  • Updating data month to month on the same tab and as the months change, the tab name changes.
  • Updating a SecureSheet from one year to the next; your main sheet may include the year, so if you copy the previous year's SecureSheet, you will have to update the name to match your updated Excel.


IMPORTANT:  Tab names in SecureSheet must match tab names in Excel exactly for an import from Excel to work.
