How do you hide a worksheet in Excel?

To hide a worksheet in Excel, the most straightforward and commonly used method is to right-click the worksheet tab and select "Hide." This action allows you to quickly conceal a worksheet from view, which can be useful if you want to prevent users from accessing certain information without deleting the data.

Hiding a worksheet does not delete any content; it simply makes the sheet invisible in the workbook. Users can unhide the worksheet later through the context menu by right-clicking on any visible worksheet tab and selecting "Unhide." This method is intuitive and particularly efficient, as it directly involves the tab corresponding to the sheet you wish to hide.

The other options involve features or commands that are not part of the standard Excel interface. For instance, there is no "Hide Sheet" option in the View menu, nor is there a command in the Format menu specifically labeled for hiding sheets. The Home tab does not contain any direct features for hiding entire worksheets, as it focuses on formatting and editing options. Thus, the correct method relies on the direct interaction with the worksheet tabs, making it user-friendly and easily accessible for hiding sheets.
