ActiveSheetIndex property

Yields or sets the 1-based index of the active worksheet in a classic XLS workbook. Read/write Integer

Syntax

property ActiveSheetIndex: Integer;

Notes

Setting this property activates the worksheet at the specified 1-based index and updates the active tab saved in the BIFF WINDOW1 record. Invalid indexes are ignored. Employ FirstSheet separately to control which sheet tab appears at the left edge of the tab bar

Example

This example saves the workbook so the third worksheet opens as the active sheet

Workbook.ActiveSheetIndex := 3;
Workbook.SaveAs('C:\Reports\book.xls');
