How to make hidden sheet invisible
Isn't a hidden sheet already not visible?
You could go into the VBE and change its .visible property to xlsheetveryhidden. Did you mean that? This would make it so that the sheet name didn't show up under Format|Sheet|Unhide That's about the only difference. LLee2 wrote: Does anyone know how to make a hidden sheet invisible?

It could also be done w/o VBA. Click View/Toolbars/Control Toolbox. Click
the properties button and change the visible property there. Of course, if changed to very hidden - I believe the OP will need to use VBA to unhide the sheet.

Or go through the VBE and change the properties in the property window (with
that worksheet object selected in the project explorer window). JMB wrote: It could also be done w/o VBA. Click View/Toolbars/Control Toolbox.

It was.
I was trying to emphasize that you don't actually need VBA to unhide a very hidden sheet. (I don't count going to the VBE as using code.)

Sorry - of course if it can be hidden w/the VBE it can be unhidden. Looks
like I picked a bad week to stop sniffing glue. "Dave Peterson" wrote: It was. I was trying to emphasize that you don't actually need VBA to unhide a very hidden sheet.
