How to hide or unhide a specific worksheet based on cell value in another sheet?
Are there any methods for us to hide or unhide a specific worksheet tab based on a cell content in another sheet? For example, when I enter the text “Yes” in the cell G1 of Sheet2, I want the Sheet1 to be hidden, and when I enter “No”, the Sheet1 to be displayed at once. How could I solve this problem in Excel?
