Well what you have clearly done is to hide the columns and what you must do is the hide the sheets. You should select this option at the bottom of your screen where it is either written sheet 1/ sheet 2 (or has been renamed by any other) and use the right-click and select the Hide option and when done, click on the Unhide option by going through the same procedures

Hi Annajones1188

My question is...?

If Excel workbook is having 5 sheets A,B,C,D,E then If I want hide B,C,D 3 sheets with the help of cell value ,
Created tru data validation as list items i.e YES/NO in SheetA

Pls follow the details SheetA is having all Sheet Name in firast column & 2nd column is having combo option "YES","NO"

Sheets Name Option
SheetB "YES"/"NO"
SheetC "YES"/"NO"
SheetD "YES"/"NO"
SheetE "YES"/"NO"

Now In sheetA, If I select ''YES" for SheetB then the selected sheetB should appear & If I select "NO" then selected sheet should hide.

So How many sheets I want to keep on my work book I will keep it & how many sheets I want to hide, I will those sheets by changing "NO"

Kindly suggest me how I need to impiment?
